Boston: 1988-12-10 Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada (FLAC_AUD_2 CD)

This is a great-to-excellent recording of Boston's show 26 years ago tonight in Canada.  This show comes as a 2 CD recording of the 1988-12-10 Winnipeg concert and 1 DVD-R of their 1988-12-07 Hamilton, Ontario concert in its original release.  But unfortunately I was only able to get the 2 CD part of the show at the time I found it on a Japanese website (and I don't know how to read Japanese).  I used a translator, which years ago did not work as well as many today do, and I believe the only thing being shared at the time was the 2 CD set.

But wait!  The story doesn't end there.  The locating and acquiring of the 2 CD part of the boot release long ago did not wind up being the end thankfully.  Years later, I was able to come across the 1988-12-07 DVD from Hamilton too.  And it is really great quality for being an audience shot video from 26 years ago.  I may upload it if there is any interest in it.  But I'm not uploading it with this 1988-12-10 Winnipeg, Manitoba  2 CD set today.

As I mentioned, the boot label release of this show was part of a two dates, CD and DVD-R release.  So the artwork has both dates listed in the setlist on the back.

This is really a great capture of both shows (the DVD and 2 CD dates).  And there are some really rare songs played too.  I cannot recall, other than a few nights earlier and on the DVD-R, where or when Boston may have played the song "Hitch A Ride" before?  I don't think they played this one live during their 1970's touring at all.  I could be wrong, but I do know for sure it is a rarely played track if it had been played at all before 1988.

I hope you enjoy the show...
