I received this rather special show in a DAT trade in the very late 90's or very early 2000's from Glen Ely (IIRC), my first digital trade partner. For those who don't know – or don't remember for that matter, haha! – DAT cassettes were the first lossless trading medium, and for a spell were the quality standard for serious traders before the ultimate takeover by burnable CD-Rs. 

Our taper either only had one C 90 cassette tape with him, or – more likely – Pagey's and Plant's appearance after the actual show for a joint encore with Bad Co was such an unexpected surprise that didn't give him the time to dig up the second tape. At any rate, he simply flipped the cassette back to side A to capture this historic moment for posterity – despite taping over the first two numbers in the process (LIVE FOR THE MUSIC and GOOD LOVIN‘ GONE BAD). A real pity the two numbers are lost of course but at the same time that was clearly a case that necessitated a quick decision in favour of a lesser evil, I'say - and at least most Zeppanatix might agree. You can certainly hear well how the audience seem to go blotto in delight as the two Zeppos show up. :-)
