Notes

A very good audience recording. Somewhat noisy crowd around the taper, slightly reverberated sound, and bass can be slightly distorted depending on the song. The first few seconds of Pimpf are missing, and the intro of The Things You Said is missing due to tape change.

The support act "Front 242" was also recorded and the recording is available on Dimeadozen.

An inferior quality recording which has a complete The Things You Said and generally quieter crowd is available as Source 2.

Many thanks to subwave collection CH for recording this concert and to Vince for his assistance with securing these tapes.
