Notes

A very good sounding FM broadcast recording. Big Muff is missing about 20 seconds from the beginning, and New Life has an edited beginning, cutting out the backing tape issue. The recent 2003 broadcast contains an unedited version. New Life has some static interference during the end of the second verse into the following chorus, and The Meaning Of Love has some slight signal dropout in the left channel during the middle of the song.

Revision A notes: the same cassette is transferred on a higher-end deck, resulting in correct playback speed and higher quality sound.

These tracks (minus New Life) were pressed on a vinyl bootleg called A Question Of Knowledge, which was then repressed as a CD bootleg as the same name. It is available as Source 4.

Note that there is a rework creating the most complete FM broadcast available at Source 3, as well as a more recent broadcast from 2003 with a slightly different tracklist at Source 1.
