Note:
First known performance of I'll Take Care of You (one of seven known performances)

source: reasonable audience recording
taper and equipment: unknown
lineage: unknown -- cd received in trade

Thanks to the unknown taper.

I added fades in / out where encore breaks had been edited out. There is also a loss of sound during Pump it Up at 53 seconds approx so I also applied fade in/out.

The speed is a little fast but seems less noticable as the show progresses.  Its still enjoyable though.

Editing lineage: Audacity (fades) > TLH > FLAC 6 (align SB) > Foobar2000 (flac tags).

The Attractions -
- Pete Thomas - drums
- Bruce Thomas - bass
- Steve Nieve - keyboards
