*[[1981-09-26 Paradiso, Amsterdam, The Netherlands/Source 1|Source 1]] is a stellar sounding FM broadcast of seven tracks.
*[[1981-09-26 Paradiso, Amsterdam, The Netherlands/Source 2|Source 2]] is a decent audience video recording.
*[[1981-09-26 Paradiso, Amsterdam, The Netherlands/Source 3|Source 3]] is a good audience recording with a quiet crowd. It's derived from a cassette copy of Source 2's video but lacks the irritating ringing noises throughout. Although much more muffled and hissy, it's easier on my ears compared to Source 2's headache-inducing buzzing.
