Live in Hong Kong 1984

Postby jfenn78 » Tue Mar 31, 2020 8:52 pm

Found this while looking for something else, this chap has kindly uploaded a full audio boot (sounds like a soundboard recording) of the Shads performance at Hong Kong Baptist College (!) in 1984

https://vimeo.com/channels/1416218

Can anyone be so good as to put the correct running order and date?

The order is as follows:
1. Foot Tapper.
2. Atlantis.
3. Temptation.
4. Kon-Tiki. (not The Savage).
5. Memory.
6. The Day I Met Marie.
7. Shadoogie.
8. Theme From The Deer Hunter (Cavatina).
9. Let Me Be The One.
10. Equinoxe (Part V).
11. Chariots Of Fire.
12. Wonderful Land.
13. Johnny B. Goode.
14. Walk Don't Run.
15. Time Is Tight.
16. Nivram.
17. Man Of Mystery.
18. The Rise And Fall Of Flingel Bunt.
19. Sleepwalk.
20. Dance On.
21. Let It Be Me.
22. You Won't See me.
23. Little 'B'.
24. Don't Cry For Me Argentina.
25. Riders In The Sky.

The date of recording is either the 11th or 12th of March, 1984.

I think this is quite a good quality recording. There is some hiss from the radio broadcast here, but maybe the original tapes exist somewhere. The Shadows are in very good form throughout the show.

Great collection - Foot Tapper a bit of an intro Joke in the same file as Atlantis.
Anyone have the 7th number Shadoogie?

It sounds like Alan Jones is singing lead on "You won't see me"
Can anyone confirm this?

Is it not curious that they didn't play Apache?
