TOGFIADO notes: I was given the tape as a present by a guy who worked at Light and Sound design in Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles (a lighting hire company which coincidentally provided the system for several of FZs tours prior to 88) when I was preparing a rig prior to a tour. He made a copy for me overnight in a bit of a hurry, so his version is probably without the saturation problems this one has in places. This was in early summer 1994 and I haven't been back there since, and the company has been taken over since then anyway so may not even be there anymore.
