Here's a special treat to celebrate 35 years since Erasure's infamous Milton Keynes Bowl show.
How about the 14 minute warm up tape, played before the show?
This may get hit with copyright strikes almost immediately but hopefully people will be able to hear it before Youtube take it down.
This was the 14 minute warm up tape played before all of Erasure's shows on the second leg of the Wild Tour in 1990. Recorded directly from the DAT tape used for playback at the venues.
This was the recording played before Erasure's infamous Milton Keynes Bowl concert on 1st September 1990 and features 3 compositions from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker, interspersed with some atmospheric sound effects synchronised to the lighting on stage. At the crescendo of Waltz of the Flowers is a the thunder clap and a bellowing voice announcing "Be Careful" followed by the Wedding March, to which the whole band enter the stage.
1 Overture
2 March
3 Waltz of the flowers
4 Wedding March
