Fits easily and conveniently on two 74 min CDs.

Recording notes:

My cassettes say DAUD1, but I'm pretty sure that this is a copy of a cassette made directly from the DAT recording, so I think it's more accurately cass/2. Probably recorded on the stage, which is why the vocals are relatively obscured in the mix. I'm assuming the cut between Cumulus and The Social was for tape swap at about the two hour mark.

Huge cut in Autobody at the 2:55 mark.

Tape 2, which starts at the 9:00 mark of Honey Melon, was inadvertently transferred at lower levels than tape 1, so the remainder of the recording was amplified in Audacity to offset that issue.

*****************************************************************
Early Slip seems to be in pretty short supply on the interwebs. I've never seen any other source of this show, so I figured it was worth sharing. (Acc. to BTAT, The Slip has asked fans to stop circulating pre-1987 recordings, so I reckon that this is one of the earliest shows that will ever surface.)

And again, not sure, but I'd feel pretty confident saying that this is a Jason Booth recording. I was at this show, after all. (That's my dumb ass screaming for Autobody over and over and exclaiming loudly once they commit to playing it.)

This is my first seed ever, so be kind and accept my apologies in advance for any failings.
Aloha,
Brad
