43 years ago today in 1981: a performance at The Venue in London, and Martin Gore’s 20th birthday. Stream & download a good audience recording here: https://t.co/DFWB81N8m6

Today we are celebrating our friend, Mr Martin Lee Gore! Your music have been the heartbeat of many listeners playlists and continue to be so — on this wonderful day, let’s dance to some great tunes! Which Martin Gore track you are picking to play out loud?

“Playing The Angel” is often regarded as a victim of the “loudness war”. Here’s a screenshot of the waveform for “Precious” comparing the CD, vinyl, and SACD stereo versions. Screenshots & audio samples of every song from each version can be found here: https://t.co/ahvDhOLIua

@Polewka123 @ChrisJamesBaird Not yet. Still trying to achieve contact with that individual. I possess a “low gen” Betamax otherwise though, but I’ve sat on it for a while because of some other flaws with it.

[Depeche Mode Live Wiki @DMLiveWiki]

@ChrisJamesBaird @Polewka123 No, this isn’t my version or rework. Still working on a lower generation copy Betamax tape.

@Lets_Avenge Thanks for your patience, the interview audio from SoundCloud has been mirrored on the wiki and is available once again.

[Depeche Mode Live Wiki @DMLiveWiki]

@Lets_Avenge Looks like it was removed from SoundCloud and is not available via https://t.co/AnFvj7C6tL. Thanks for the heads up - we'll try to see if someone else might've downloaded it so it can be mirrored.

[Depeche Mode Live Wiki @DMLiveWiki]

Added high-quality footage of the "20th Century Box" television segment, including rehearsal footage of "Let's Get Together", interviews with the band and with fans outside the Crocs nightclub, and footage of playback performances inside the club: https://t.co/UCTJ26DSDN

Did you know there is a version of "Suffer Well" with vocals re-recorded in Simlish, the fictional language used in the Sims video game series? There's even a music video for this version created using in-game footage. Listen, watch, and read more here: https://t.co/SYIokLIxja

@sodascone @ByTor_X1 @dimeadozenorg which is a torrent tracker for live recordings - I’ve adjusted the wiki page to link to that website at that text for future readers, thanks!

[Depeche Mode Live Wiki @DMLiveWiki]

Added an upgrade of the 1990-06-29 Detroit audience recording sourced from the below eBay-acquired presumed first-generation tapes courtesy of @ByTor_X1 at the Rush Archives. Stream & download: https://t.co/TP6ZChQ89I

43 years ago today: 1981-06-11 BBC Studio Session. Stream & download the best quality version without DJ chatter interrupting the songs here: https://t.co/QgDZuRShB2

[Depeche Mode Live Wiki @DMLiveWiki]

@davidjmcelroy Also of note are two earlier live versions. One which recently surfaced that has totally different lyrics and arrangement is likely the source of the song’s bizarre title, and a later version which more closely resembles the album version: https://t.co/enRCPQZIY7

@andykzook The “Toys” bootleg sounds dreadful indeed. I was very pleased when the initial transfer of this master tape surfaced around 10 years ago and I’m happy to have the opportunity to provide a definitive & patched version today. 🙂

[Depeche Mode Live Wiki @DMLiveWiki]

Added a fresh 2024 transfer of the 1982-02-21 Glasgow FM radio broadcast master cassette. Improved quality, patched "New Life", and DJ intro/outros kept. Stream & download at the wiki, or on YouTube (link at next reply): https://t.co/tVeOk8vmGq

@Polewka123 If I remember correctly the audio on this bootleg is dubbed from cassette. 🤢
