OK, I've thought long and hard before putting this up and have decided to do so after considering the pros and cons. Bad news first so let's start with the cons: i) This is not the complete show, ii) The sound is terrible (please check samples) so this is one for completists only. However, on the pros side: i) None of this has been officially released (probably because the sound is so bad), ii) This is a 2nd gen tape, iii) Although this isn't complete, what is here doesn't have any major cuts.

I've checked and the long medley which makes up the last track is not the same as on the Bright Midnight release as being from the previous night's show in Bakersfield so that clears up that question; clearly that is taken from the 2nd reel of the stage recording of that show which I put up a while back and which does not circulate but which the band obviously still have.

Enjoy! But no complaints about the sound please, you can't say you weren't warned. Hopefully at least one person will enjoy it anyway. I do.
