Additonal Info:
This was sent to me by tkgafs who received it about a week after the concert. The good news is that it has a nice bright sound and is superior to the other versions of the show I had. The bad news is that the tape had been played many times with the result that there is some occasional tape flutter; there were also two sections (near the end of Masks and the beginning of Meurglys III) that required patching from SGNM.
I also restored Man Erg to its correct place in the running order (it was at the end of side 1 of the tape) and patched in a few extra seconds before and/or after The Sleepwalkers, Man-Erg and Childlike from SGNM where this did not exist on the tape.
