- BBC in the UK has just launched a digital radio station available
on digital radios and over the internet. This is called
6music (being the BBC's 6th national radio station). One
feature of the programming is a nightly trawl through the BBC's
very extensive live music archives going back 40 years.
This is called Dream Ticket. Currently 5 EC live tracks
are available to download from the 6 music site. Addresses,
track titles and playing times are as follows:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/ram/dt_costello01.ram Everyday I Write The Book 4.01
http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/ram/dt_costello02.ram Oliver's Army 2.51
http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/ram/dt_costello03.ram Shipbuilding 4.21
http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/ram/dt_costello04.ram The Greatest Thing 2.51
http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/ram/dt_costello05.ram The world And His Wife 2.21
These appear to come from a tour supporting "Punch The Clock" as EC is accompanied by the TKO Horns and Afrodiziak. My best guess is that the performance is that of 17 October 1983 - thanks to Nick Ratcliffe - Links:
