Note that there are unfixable missing samples at 
around some of the track transitions due to a bad CDR rip.

Original notes: this is the second of my last 4 1984 shows, that I got from Chris S.
It's an average AUD recording, and to my knowledge it is complete.

Notes:
-MS replaces a good bit of the lyrics to Gardening At Night with 'la, la, la, la, la...' as if he has forgotten them.
-MS 'raps' some of the lyrics to Skank before 1,000,000
-After a dreadful first 30 seconds, the recording (with some eq by the end user) rounds into a very nice aud recording

Grade: C
