Anyone who has more than a passing interest in bootlegs and ROIO will be aware of the late Mike “The Mic” Millard. A LA based music fan whose surreptitious recordings of the concerts he attended were astonishing good, especially for the late 70s period when he was most active.

Some of his previously uncirculated recordings have started to become available, and today has seen the release of his recording of David Bowie on the Isolar II tour at the LA Forum in 1978. It’s currently being seeded on dimeadozen, and will no doubt start to become available on various blogs/YouTube/trackers/etc. I’ve just downloaded it and am listening with some Dead Man’s Fingers rum; both are utterly stellar.
Thanks for the reminder! I’ve been smoking up my Dime connection this morning as a result. There’s an absolute belter of a Linda Ronstadt gig up there too that’s well worth grabbing.
Very true. Plus a Rod Stewart & The Faces gig he recorded is on there also, and it’s absolutely blistering.
Thanks for the nod Mr_Hump. I know it’s obvious but I registered to the site and had two trojan horse virus alerts just trying to register. Make sure your anti-virus software is up to date before logging on to the Dime site.
Never had so much as a whiff of a virus in nearly 20 years membership there.
I suspect that your security software or browser settings are flagging false positives.
Same here. It’s a bootleg site – ROIOs – not a copyright buster sharing commercial CDs, DVDs and what not. FFS it’s almost respectable!
Thats good to hear. Odd, I haven’t had any virus alerts ‘pop’ up on my screen for prob’ a year or even two. I hit two alerts after being on the site. Hopefully a false alarm as you have said Mike_H and Vulpes.
