PLease note - not the world's greatest recording and was done for my own benefit. I've added it for completists only. This represents the second half of the show only (first didn't tape). As there was a good degree of changing over between performers, I've cut out the gaps. Nothing important is excluded. If anyone's concerned, I could supply a compilation of the silences and choughing.
The show was a benefit for Amnesty International - please rembemer them and the work they do if you do download this. Also, these performers have a fine collection of recorded works that you really should own.
Don't pass on for money or in any lossy format. Partly because that would be a mean and evil thing to do, but also because I'm not sure this recording warrants it.
