Graeme's McCarthy / Stereolab Video / Audio List

Here's a list of live Stereolab recordings. I should still have all the videos, now on DVD, but I no longer have a lot of the audios. That list should be used as reference only for the fanatical collector, as I once was, who wants it all. Shows listed in intalics have, to the best of my knowledge, been uncirculated beyond a handful of people.

I haven't traded in a number of years, about 9, but am interested in getting some more recent live concert video recordings. If you want to trade -

The video list follows, the audio list is here.

VIDEO

All times listed in minutes. Grading is A+ (for super close, clear shots) to C (shaky, distant, heads in the way etc.). There is no grade given for pro-shot material as it is, by definition, of professional quality. Generation is listed next (0 = master) followed by the format - PAL (used in Europe) or NTSC (used in North America and Japan).

AUDIO

All times listed in minutes. Grading is A (best) to C (worst). Grading is relative to source - an "A" audience tape will not sound as good as an "A" radio tape. Source is listed (AU for audience recording, RA for radio recording and MD for mixing desk recording) followed by the tape generation of my copy, when known. (0 = master).
