** previously circulated as December 13, 1982,
sometimes with the wrong venue.
This show was rebroadcast in January 2002 and the announcer
gave the date as February 13
[I taped that broadcast but can't find the tape;
all I can find is a transfer to CDR with a lot of flaws];
MOB's website gives February 14 as the date so I went with that.

original uploader's notes:
"seems to be some interest in the old mob sets, so i'll keep seeding 'em.
this one received as 11 tracks on cd-r from mysterious boston-area trader, 2004.
i suspect the trader recorded the disc from cassette on a standalone cd recorder.
i recompiled and properly split the tracks for this seed.
i've seen this set circulated in an incomplete, tao version as "12/13/82 jonathan swift's."
the mob shows list on their site doesn't help resolve this discrepancy.
in any event, this is the complete, dao version of that set.
quality is very good - sbd/fm broadcast quality, with very little signal degradation.
bass rides a little high in the mix for my taste. 8.5 out of 10. -
enjoy."
