NEW FROM THE ARCHIVES: AGORA '78
Aug. 9, 1978 Cleveland, OH

Deep into the Darkness Tour, the E Street Band took the stage at Cleveland’s Agora Theatre and Ballroom on August 9, 1978, where the entire show was simulcast on local station WMMS and many other stations around the country to an estimated audience of 3 million listeners. For years bootleg copies of the FM broadcast, in various degrees of quality, widely circulated among collectors and established The Agora ’78 as a legendary performance from Darkness-era Springsteen.

Not until now, however, has the pristine live stereo mix been heard. Seven 1/4 inch reels were unearthed in the Thrill Hill Archives and transferred via the Plangent Process, the same method used on the recent Album Collection Vol. 1 remastering project.

The entire show is now available in High Definition 24 bit / 192 kHz audio, as well as on a 3 CD set and MP3 and CD-Quality downloads.

CD orders will begin shipping Jan. 23. Order the CDs and upgrade to CD+MP3 Bundle for only $1.95 more so you can download the MP3s today.

New from the Bruce Springsteen Archives, transferred from the stereo reel-to-reel tapes via the Plangent Process and mastered at Gateway Mastering. HD files are 24 bit / 192 kHz.

Release notes from Toby Scott:
I found the seven Agora tape reels in a box that had been returned from the Rock'n Roll Hall Of Fame. The tapes were part of an exclusive Springsteen exhibit “Asbury Park to the Promised Land”. It wasn’t until the request to release this show came up that the tapes needed to be found. Not at Sony, not at Thrill Hill Archives, not at the archiving company. Last known location was the Rock'n Roll Hall of Fame. They informed me what box to look in and there they were, marked with the original indication of speed, tracks and show date.

I had the tapes delivered to Plangent Processes for evaluation and transfer, if they seemed to be of adequate quality. After comparison to other copies of this show, this was the best version and potentially the original master tapes. Plangent transferred all seven reels using their unique process, which corrects any speed variations for accurate playback. This eliminates the wow and flutter usually found in the playback of any analog tape. This new transfer to the digital domain was done at 192 (samples per second) with 24 bit resolution. The resulting digital files were sent to Gateway Mastering for evaluation and mastering, as was done to the Box Set Volume 1, recently released to critical acclaim. The resulting new master will give a renewed vigor to the already exciting show.

Niet echt een cadeau want hij is flink aan de prijs. Maar, verzamelaar als ik ben, heb ik toch deze show, net als de vorige in hd-audio gekocht

Leuk die archive releases!

Die van de Apollo is erg goed maar die is natuurlijk erg nieuw nog. Die van de Agora kun je goed vergelijken met de hammersmith-show die bij de 30th anniversary editie van Born To Run zit

Een nieuwe opname uit de kluizen:

Front of House recordings of this show have circulated for years, along with partial tapes of stereo mixes from the multitracks. This marks the first time the entire show has been mixed for release.

Ik heb hem net gedownload (de MP3-versie). Ik heb de bootleg nooit gehoord, maar de kwaliteit van deze versie is echt ontzettend goed
