That clueless dj from KROQ happens to be Jed the Fish, and he actually probably one of the few radio djs I can stand, and he plays Blue Room (uses it as his background music when he talks) every day, in fact I actually enjoy his rambling on...so think again before you trash one of the few radio djs that will play the Orb...I remember he even played Once More when that first came out...

For the Thanksgiving holiday I drove my monstrous, gas guzzling piece of
crap 12 passenger Ford van through Kentucky (over the river and through the
woods...) to my grandma's. All the way I listened to live Orb stuff on my
portable mp3 player which is having remote troubles so it would occasionally
pause itself just to be annoying. The problem I have is the way these files
are named tells me little about them so I'm hoping the list can clear them
up for me (and everyone else since they're on CR).
1993ca~1 -- I'm guessing this was recorded in California? This is one file.
1996or~1 -- This is broken into 13 tracks. The last is some pathetic,
clueless dj from KROQ in Pasadena. It was a show played in a national
forest somewhere. I'd love to get a board mix without the dj interruptions.
1997bo~1 -- This one is in 10 tracks which are named as follows:
Cd101s~1.mp3, Cd102t~1.mp3, Cd103b~1.mp3, Cd104b~1.mp3, Cd105d~1.mp3,
Cd201o~1.mp3, Cd202a~1.mp3, Cd203l~1.mp3, Cd204s~1.mp3, Cd204s~1.mp3,
Cd205t~1.mp3. It sounds like it was recorded from the audience (very good
quality but lots of crowd noise).
1997gl~1 -- This is in 9 tracks and is kind of decipherable. Is it maybe
Glastenbury (sp?). 1tower~1.mp3, 2we_re~1.mp3, 3beer_~1.mp3, 4termi~1.mp3,
5asylu~1.mp3, 6salt~1.mp3, 7toxyg~1.mp3, 8delta~1.mp3, 9majes~1.mp3.
1997to~1 -- This one is in 17 tracks. 01span~1.mp3, 02secr~1.mp3,
03blue~1.mp3, 04asyl~1.mp3, 05astr~1.mp3, 06we_r~1.mp3, 07beer~1.mp3,
08outl~1.mp3, 09delt~1.mp3, 10beam~1.mp3, 11plat~1.mp3, 12bedo~1.mp3,
13maje~1.mp3, 14favo~1.mp3, 15salt~1.mp3, 16toxy~1.mp3, 17litt~1.mp3.
Does anyone have any shows from 94 and 95? Were they touring or in the
studio?
I know Thrash is going to spit venom over this but I think these shows are
fucking brilliant. Even with the occasional mistake (which for me just lets
you know that they were really playing this stuff and not just dj-ing it)
they're of a type of trippy ambience that is unique and I would still love
to hear performed live. Since the only thing I ever got to see them do live
was the "Greatest Hits" tour (yawn)... oh well.
Speaking of Thrash, I've been trying to get into the KDX thing as I've
finally got a couple of free hours to download stuff and I keep getting
"Remote host refused connection." What does this mean?
