People Are People, If You Want, Shame and Blasphemous Rumours from this date were officially released on various editions of the 'A Question Of Lust' single.

An unedited, complete pre-FM recording from this concert is available, along with an FM broadcast master. Additionally, there's a speed-corrected version of the most popular bootleg variant, 'Performance'.

Sources

  • Source 1 is an unedited, complete pre-FM recording.
  • Source 2 is subwave's excellent master cassette recording of the original DRS3 FM broadcast, with some patches to create a complete recording.
  • Source 3 is a very good sounding DRS3 FM broadcast recording sourced from a speed-corrected rip of the Performance 2xCD bootleg. It has poor dynamic range and may sound rather muffled, likely due to the "NoNOISE" noise-reduction system used. This source is provided primarily for collectors.
