Turns Out You Can Use Underwear As An Audio Filter

There were never any live recordings of the influential cult German art-rock band Can. Never, that is, until now, and the only reason there's any recording of the band in concert at all is because for several years in the 1970s, a rabid fan made bootleg tapes with a cassette recorder hidden in his pants. And now one of those recordings has been remastered and there you go, and if you think I'm going to mention the "What's Happening" episode with the Doobie Brothers here, yes, I am. Also, your topic is favorite bootlegs, or bootlegs you made yourself -- I would think that with the advent of the smartphone, it's way too easy to do that. And, of course, there are the bands who encourage recording and streaming, from the Dead to the present. (New York Times)
