Recorded in September 1983 at 3:25 am on a Sunday morning via a WBAI 99.5 FM Labrish show
re-broadcast of the origional Feb. 02, 1980 live broadcast of the concert. This was said to be the first
reggae show to be broadcasted live in New York city. Thanks to Labrish host Habte Sellassie for that and
other concerts. This was likely from a SBD of the show, but Habte never talked much about the audio
sources he had, let alone dates. So, thankfully he mentioned this one ! I made no attempt to edit out station
I.D's as they were an integral part of the show for me. Tracks 06, 07, & 08 are from the BASF tape-all
others are from the Maxell.
