Comments:

    Almost the complete set from Pier 84, NYC, 10-Aug-83. This was originally
   released with the first 2 songs badly mismastered. The rest of both discs
    was fine, pretty standard bootleg quality. Shortly afterwards the
    bootlegger released a 7" with corrected versions of the tracks. It was
    supposed to be given away free to people who had already bought the album.
    (Honour among thieves!) The single came in a plain white sleeve with
    record labels that were different to the album labels, but in the same
    style: a comic-book-like picture of a man in a fedora reading a newspaper,
    orange on one side and white on the other (no type).

Quality:

ECIS reports that copy quality of this audience recording varies from very good mono to poor. The fine playing from EC+A & the TKO Horns makes up for the shartfall in quality. The version of "Tears Before Bedtime" with the Horns is probably quite unusual. This has such bad sound quality that I didn't even bother to tape it! - Melinda Hale {xmelinda@iglou.com} (Maybe Melinda had a mismastered copy!)
