Nice of Allen to loan me his old tapes to share with you.
Some copies of Allen's recordings do exist out there.
This is the first time that the master has been digitized.
Not the best sounding recordings, but decent and these are from the master cassettes.
FYI, the first guy that calls out for Politician (right after Call My Name) is Allen.
