Simon & Garfunkel - Vancouver, BC August 22, 1983 "Listen To The Silence" (Mr. Sifter Remaster)



Simon & Garfunkel
BC Place Stadium
Vancouver, British Columbia
August 22, 1983

lineage: from silvers "Listen to the Silence">EAC>FLAC > remaster

Remastered by Mr. Sifter, August 2024.


Remastering notes:

Removed a 60hz hum present throughout most of the recording, as well as reduced some (not all) of the hiss from clearly a cassette source. Did some modest polishing to the sound, added very slight reverb to make it feel a bit more like a live album (BC Place can hold 60,000 for concerts), but without detracting from the detail in the soundboard. Removed the annoying close clapper between songs. Removed the break between discs for a seamless transition. Retracked the show to split medleys.

A good show towards the end of the reunion tour, with a few notable arrangement differences from the Central Park gig, several different band members, a couple S&G songs not performed in 1981, and three 'Hearts and Bones' songs.
