Traders Den 2/3/18 - Tracked by kingrue upload 1396
......................................................................................................

This tape was labeled as March 8 & 9, 1979 I was not able to find any verifiable information on these dates at CBGB's. I can only assume these dates are correct.

It's unclear to me which portions of this tape come from either March 8 or 9.

After spending time on listening and tracking this tape, It's clear to me that the last 4 songs (tracks 15-18) are from a different show.

As Nico was starting track 4 "Tananore", she stops to yell at some people in the crowd saying "No You Can't Talk, Dammit" !!

An interesting moment is when Nico starts playing "Tanamore" again on track 8, then stops half way through, and it sounds like she says "I forgot I already did it".

It's possible that these March gigs may have been recorded by SKOTF Archive, who also recorded Nico at CBGB's on Feb 19, 1979.

I find Nico extremely hard to understand what she is singing and have a very difficult time trying to identify her song titles.

I had help with some of the song titles from: Sousourn1823.

If anyone can shine some more light on this recording, i'd appreciate it. has anyone heard of these recordings before?

I also had to do some major volume balancing on this recording. The channels were very uneven. It's much better now.

Check samples for quality.
