1982-03-28 De Lantaren, Rotterdam, The Netherlands

Notes

There are two broadcasts from this date. The original broadcast is sourced from a vinyl bootleg called "A Question Of Knowledge" and sounds somewhat worse than the more recent rebroadcast. The recent rebroadcast was on April 5, 2003 on VPRO's Nighttrain, The Netherlands and it sounds excellent. However, since both broadcasts have different tracklistings, both are essential to have.
