RE-UPLOAD: The Comsat Angels - 3 Netherlands FM Broadcasts- 1981/1982 (Flac)

Very good sound. Thanks to freadheadset for sharing these recordings on Dime.

Source : Cassette > Audacity > CD Wave Editor > FLAC 8

Digging through my box of old tapes I ran into another song, lost on a tape !
It concerns Track 01 Total War live at the Parkpop festival.
So I decided to add it to my old upload and ressed it in total again.

Brilliant FM recordings of eighties group Comsat Angels.

Comsat Angels were immensely popular in The Netherlands.
They toured through Holland at least twice a year.
From these tours, from the seventees through the eighties I have already seeded some gigs or parts of gigs.

They made a lot of great albums but , to my opinion, the best were the first two,
"Waiting For A Miracle" and "Sleep No More" and their 12 inch "Eye Of The Lense".

They have been and still are one of my favourite bands from the eighties.

Kro radio recorded and broadcasted them for their program "Rocktempel".

Stephen Fellows vocals , guitar
Kevin Bacon bass
Mik Glaisher drums
