The Kinks
October 18, 1969 Early and Late shows
Fillmore East

This recording seems to be rather rare. The audience quality is not very good compared to modern standards but I find it listenable, especially since there's not much live 1969 Kinks that circulates. Please check the samples to get an idea of the sound quality for yourself.

disc 1 - early show - 48:38
01 [2:13] [cuts in] ‘Til The End of The Day >
02 [8:41] Last of The Steam Powered Trains
03 [1:30] Ray talk with band intros
04 [3:55] Waterloo Sunset [with false start]
05 [5:38] Mister Churchill Says
06 [4:45] Brainwashed
07 [3:26] Mindless Child of Motherhood
08 [2:57] Sunny Afternoon
09 [2:12] You Really Got Me [cuts in] >
10 [2:24] All Day And All of The Night
encores:
11 [4:16] Victoria
12 [1:00] Dedicated Follower of Fashion
13 [1:13] Well Respected Man >
14 [1:20] Death of A Clown >
15 [1:08] Dandy

06 [2:06] You Really Got Me >
07 [1:41] All Day And All of The Night
08 [4:29] Mr. Churchill Says

Note: A ticket stub scan that I found online is included with the download. The Kinks were the middle act (with headliners Spirit and openers The Bonzo Dog Band) at The Fillmore East on October 17 & 18, 1969. Ray makes a comment when introducing the band that John Dalton on bass had just joined the band "yesterday morning".

Hal:

How much I love you for finding this gem!! No matter what the sound quality, any pre-1970 KINKS recording is such a joy. Hope you can find some more. Thank you so much . . .

Any chance of a re-up for the early show? I found the late show on Dime (yours, I believe), but can't find the early show anywhere & all links here are dead.
