Notes
The band performs live in the studio as part of a local (Tampa) radio station program. The radio host, who interviews the band between songs, can rarely be heard as this is the studio-only recording that has not been mixed or prepared for broadcast.

The show host's introduction of the program as well as the first +/- 35 seconds of the first song are missing.

The band's former sound engineer, Lee Coryell, loaned me band member Steve Connelly's cassette in July 1995, which I transferred to DAT.

I originally transferred this from DAT to CDR and Shorten (shn) in 2002, but those files became corrupt, so I retransferred the DAT in 2024.

See also the FM broadcast recording of this performance (from an unknown-generation cassette), which includes the full first song as well as the show host's introductions and interviews.
