Journey: 1986-10-09 Detroit, MI (FLAC_SB/FM_2 CD)

Out of the five or so copies I have of this show, this one is currently the best.  It's an excellent, and more complete recording of a show Journey did that was aired live via satellite transmission to Japan.  This recording, full lineage unknown, was recorded by someone in Japan it seems because the radio announcer girl is speaking Japanese with a small amount of English as she introduces the show and as she comments a few times throughout it.  I've had this exact version of the show since the 1990's, but after listening to my copy yesterday, I realized this one is so much better and has a much lower lineage if it is from the same exact source that recorded mine.

Before I lost a 1 TB hard drive I didn't have backed up around 2010, I did have another version of this show that sounded even better.  I realized this morning as I was going through the different versions of the show I have, the even better version was not a version I had anymore.  What a bummer!

Thanks goes to "RockNBear" for sharing this version on Dime.  I left their EAC text files and original text file intact and put them into a folder named "original uploader's files".

There are definitely a number of songs missing from this show that were recorded but not in this version being uploaded.  There's no "Don't Stop Believin'", "Be Good To Yourself", etc, etc and they definitely were played.  As with most FM broadcast shows, one city may air a more complete recording when it is played and one may broadcast a less complete version.  I'm guessing Japan does the same thing?  I have a more complete version on this PC, but two things keep me from uploading it.  First, it doesn't sound as clean  And secondly, even though it was encoded as a lossless file set, it tested as a 99% to 100% MPEG (or lossy as in mp3) copy.  Whoever that version came from likely was trying to pass it off as a high quality lossless recording and it isn't one.

I guess it's time to finish up the work on uploading this show, so in closing, and as always, I hope you enjoy this 1986 Journey concert...

UPDATE ( a few hours after the original posting):  I'm listening to this show now and I believe there may be a few sources in the recording.  It's a great recording, some parts better sounding than others, but a great one to have too.  There are a few cuts at the end of songs you can tell.  I'm not sure if it is due to whoever recorded it off-air removing commercials or if it is from the addition of another source making it a more complete show?  And if you like Journey, you will not be disappointed at all by what I'm mentioning here.  It doesn't ruin the show or anything like that!
