Ben Gibbard - Live at the Bowery Ballroom, 2006

Ben Gibbard is, as you almost certainly know, frontman of Death Cab For Cutie and The Postal Service, and has made many guest appearances all over indie music. I'm not really very interested in his work with either of these groups, especially The Postal Service - songs which could have been enjoyable just seem lifeless thanks to the overworked music. I personally much prefer the rawer feel of this solo Gibbard bootleg, which I originally found on the excellent indie blog, rbally. That particular post is long since gone, however, so here it is, re-uploaded. This is the highest quality I have, but a great part of this bootleg's charm is its slightly lo-fi atmosphere anyway, in my opinion. This was performed on the 10th of January, 2006.

Tangerine Dream - Livemiles (Cassette, 1988)

This album from the legendary Tangerine Dream comprises two live recordings: their gig on the 8th of June 1986 in Albuquerque, New Mexico and in West Berlin, Germany on the 1st of August 1987.

I haven't yet had a chance to listen to this fully, but it seems promising. The sound quality is average, as it has been ripped from a 2nd (or 3rd or 4th ad infinitum) hand cassette (big ups to Groovy for still stocking tapes haha!). Folder includes cover scan taken from discogs of the vinyl cover, not of the cassette that I own. Also I've switched to divshare cos it's awesome.
