Notes

An excellent audience recording. The first few seconds of Pimpf are missing, and a few seconds at the very end of Black Celebration are cut off due to tape flip, but otherwise no music is missing. Very lively crowd around the taper.

Many thanks to Falko for generously lending me this tape to archive, CPR for bringing the tape to me, and to Elly Apfel for recording this concert.
