Well another huge huge band! I'm willing to get as many boots as I would be able to!
I REPEAT HERE: I don't want any MP3 sourced show neither for SOUNDGARDEN nor Chris Cornell nor anything (except if agreed).

(Looking for videos as well as audio): pay a look at my  Soundgarden VCDS list

Here is a short but not exhaustive wishlist :
 

and Everything I don't have from them (i'm a total completist)!

1995-96-97 (34 shows)

Last recorded show 2/2/97 Perth, Australia - Bassendaen Oval 8: good sound but a little distorted ! Chris seems really bored at times.. Chris closes the show by soloing a completely unknown song, which for now is titled "Wouldn't You Miss Me?" (isn't it worth getting it??)

Charlotte '91 11/14/91 Charlotte, NC - 8.5   (2 discs) great early badmotorfinger set.. 
Toronto '91 11/xx/91 Toronto, Canada -  7 ANA(?)>CDR (2 discs) Not so much information is known on that one.. Date is not sure and it might have happened in october 91 or november 91 as it is fore sure one of the earliest Badmotorfinger shows!
Oakland '91 10/12/91 Oakland, Ca - 8 ANA(?)>wav>upgrade>CDR Excellent and definitely rare show!! The sound is good !

Anyway the SWMGEC (great bass-line) just kills me every time I listen to it.. This is a song i would keep if I had to leave all others except few from their live appearances.
RIP Awards 91 (version 2) 10/06/91 Los angeles,Ca - Palladium 8 FM>audio tape (gen unknown)>CDR same set but even though the show has been edited and is incomplete it remains rare because has all the hilarious comments Chris made at that time between tracks!

Milwaukee '90 03/09/90 Milwaukee, Wi - 7 analog audio tape (?)>CDR there is some noise on the show and noise reduction would not be efficient on it!
