Notes:
The sound quality is well below my par. But - as a Great Taper - I walked away with the tape. There was no way I could go FOB here. Security was way too good. I can't tell you how I did it. If I did tell you, I'd have to kill you. I didn't bribe security. I didn't go alone. I operated alone. I walked in and out of the front door. Had to sit in the mezzanine to run my taping gear and get away with it. I was in extreme stealth mode. This is my personal best mission-impossible Tape. It's worth a listen. It's a history-maker for sure. Had to keep hiding my mic. Sound gets better during second half as I expose my mic more.
get their album (HDS-701) - it sounds much, much better
