==================================================================

The French DJ talks at the beginning of tracks 4, 10 and 14. He doesn't talk over the music.

This is complete with no songs cut. The tape flip was very quick during crowd cheer.

Stonecutter's 1st gen tape clocks in at 71:00 min. Appears to be pitch perfect. The sound quality is very good to excellent.

I did find 2 other versions of this broadcast. One that was 73:23 min. I noticed it played noticeably slower.

Which explains why the time length was longer. The second version I found was 69:36 min. I haven't heard that one.

I've always liked Blondie's music. It was unique and created a style of music all her own.

I had the chance to see her on the opening date of her 1999 tour. The only time I've seen her and yes, I did tape it.

So If you're a fan of Blondie and you don't have this date, now's your chance to own a copy of this.

Thanks to Rich for sending his tape to be shared.
