Notes
A very good sounding FM broadcast. Black Celebration, A Question Of Time, It's Called A Heart, and Master And Servant from the "Rated PG" bootleg were used to replace the ones on the tape as those tracks are sourced from the master tape of this FM broadcast recording. electropop was kind enough to supply a very good sounding source of Shake The Disease (which is likely from a separate broadcast), so I slotted that in as it would appear in the set list, after A Question Of Time.

REVISION A NOTES: Sped up the "Rated PG" bootleg sourced tracks (Black Celebration, A Question Of Time, It's Called A Heart, and Master And Servant) by 2.0%. Somehow the speed was too slow on the first revision of this rework - my apologies for the inconvenience. If you downloaded this recording before, I suggest redownloading it so you have the best listening experience.
