In the early 90s, I got to talk to a customer in the bookstore I was working at. He told me that he'd recorded this show,
but hadn't seen the tape since shortly after the fact. After some months of nagging, he came up with a 90 minute tape.
Little did I realize, that show had never seen the light of day ...
The mists of time somehow obscure the facts, but I think he recorded it on his brandnew Uher close to the speakers and
I can't remember why I never came around to get the rest of this (obviously incomplete) recording, if it ever existed.
He was a strange guy, (a lawyer now!) I have long lost contact since, can't even remember his name.
Anyway, here it is. Hope you'll like it, I think it's above standard for the time.
I didn't fiddle with the sound at all, here's exactly what I got back then. I gave this to a couple of friends after I transferred it,
but I think it's still a rather rare and obscure item.
To end the story, some years ago, legendary german Radio & TV host Manfred Sexauer was an infrequent customer at my own bookstore.
I made a copy for him as a gift and he was really moved when I handed it out to him !
