    The Nirvana gig mentioned is https://archive.org/details/ajc00795_nirvana-1989-07-08 The quality is surprisingly good for a bootleg and the band are super-tight!

      Found a few bands whose names I recognise. :)

      * Midnight Oil: https://archive.org/details/@aadam_jacobs_collection?and[]=c...

      This one has a fairly decent quality recording of "Beds are Burning" too. Australian Classic Rock. :)

      * Tracy Chapman: https://archive.org/details/@aadam_jacobs_collection?and[]=c...

      Audio quality is decent here too. Listening to "Fast Car" now, and the quality is solid. :)

          I don't know, I also feel like 'data hoarding' is something that's been getting more popular in recent years. Maybe because the ephemerality of the internet is starting to show.
