Notes:

A famous early period Josef K show playing support to their Glasgow neighbours. This was the "Funky Glasgow Now" / Postcard Extravaganza,
one of only two times the (then) three Postcard bands played together - Orange Juice, Josef K and the Go-Betweens,
first in Edinburgh on 11th April, then this one in Glasgow.
I have done a bit of work to the recording to clean it up a bit and I reckon it now sounds as good as it can get. For many years I thought
this was a high generation / poor quality copy, but on closer listening it is the hi-hat frequency which the soundboard mic can't deal with
rather than it being tape hiss from multiple copying. This 'rasping sound' when the hi-hat is struck can get annoying so be warned, but it
does get less noticeable further into the show (it is at its clearest on the MP3 sample). THat aside, its another great document of Josef K live.

The Orange Juice Torrent should still be live ;

And if you are patient, I will post the Go-betweens set here soon, once I get it transferred and cleaned up.
