Recordings and set lists.

    For most of the history of Womadelaide the good old Australian Broadcasting Corporation ( affectionately known as Auntie ) has documented the festival. However there have been lapses and rather strange turns in policy ( mostly due to budget cuts ) so there are gaps. Also, the ABC only ever set up recording facilities on stages 1-3 and some of the more interesting acts have appeared elsewhere. So its been left to tapers to fill the gaps here and there.

   Now we at the archive do not condone the unofficial taping of shows , especially for commercial gain, but we are an historical archive so we believe that its part of our function to let people know what music has been preserved over the years by whatever means . We present this list in that spirit , we do not know where you can acquire these recordings , whether they be TV , FM, AM or audience recordings and we will not help anyone in their search to acquire them , so please don't waste your time asking as we won't reply- unless you have some official research project you want help with .

2004 Recordings

  There were a few scattered radio broadcasts (one wonders, just why do the ABC attend the whole weekend and then broadcast so few sets ) , there was definitely a full film crew present in 2004 as the ABC broadcast a few minutes of film footage of the Youssou N'Dour set on their Womadelaide retrospective. However I have never seen a full set of any of the acts from 2004 broadcast, as they were in 2006-2007, so yet again it might have been a one off not organised by the ABC . There also may have been some other film crews there as SBS broadcast a program on the festival. A limited number of audience sourced recordings also exist .
