Blondie / MN,USA 08.07.1982 Complete

This rare recording features a complete stereo audience recording of the Minneapolis performance from their final tour in 1982, which coincided with the release of their sixth album, "THE HUNTER." This rare recording features a live performance from the "Tracks Across America Tour '82," a tour held at Parade Stadium, a soccer stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on August 7, 1982, with a capacity of approximately 16,560 people. Directly digitally transferred from the low-quality cassette master, it offers exceptional sound quality that could be considered top-notch for the time, with a crisp, clear sound image reminiscent of a line recording. The vocals and each part are well-balanced, resulting in the clear sound characteristic of an outdoor performance. Pitch discrepancies caused by the master have also been carefully corrected. This tour, which promoted the album "THE HUNTER," ended up consisting of only 19 North American dates due to the cancellation of a planned European leg due to poor ticket sales. Chris Stein fell ill during the tour, and the band disbanded shortly thereafter, making this their final tour. Frank Infante also sat out this tour due to conflicts within the band, and was replaced by Eddie Martinez. The setlist included three tracks from the then-new "THE HUNTER" album, along with tracks from their previous album "AUTOAMERICAN" ("Chrome," from Debbie Harry's solo album, the opening track "Rapture," and the single "The Tide Is High"). It also featured the hit single "Call Me," and a cover of the Rolling Stones' "Start Me Up"! Experience a superb performance with a stellar lineup, complete with a horn section!
