A very "groovy" show, especially at the original speed. As with virtually every 1980 show, highlights are the amazing guitar solos in City of Tiny Lights, Pound for a Brown, and Easy Meat, and the low points are the overplayed YAWYI and vocal numbers. The bass vamp in City of Tiny Lights is particularly groovy, and leads to a killer rock-riff jam. And dig that segue from Pound into Teenage Wind!

Just to make sure everyone's on the same page - the mentions of clicks above are strictly legacy, as each of these clicks has been lovingly removed by hand (or at least mouse-finger). There were a few more clicks in Pick Me and the Society Pages medley that were likewise terminated. Note that the timecodes above refer to the files pre-speed correction, hence the "different" tape flips.

There's nothing that could be done with the distortion in Chunga's Revenge - so either keep your volume low for this song, or play these files with ReplayGain enabled.

Flambay's speed correction:
01 Chunga <---> 07 Bamboozled (before tf cut): +70cts
07 Bamboozled (after tf cut) <---> 10 Beautiful Guy: +40cts
11 Beauty Knows <---> 18 Easy Meat: +30cts
19 Joe & 20 Pee: +20cts
21 Dancin Fool <---> 24 Illinois: +30cts
