Notes:

Here is a great soundboard from JLP. The quality is nearly perfect.

Additional Notes:

This was originally shared without an exact date and venue. The details shown in this updated info file were provided by the user Katsuzo in 2004, and copied by iggy1 when it was reshared in 2021. No reference was given so there are still significant elements of uncertainty to this show. The frequency content really drops off after 15 kHz which lends credence to this being from an FM broadcast.

Note that because I changed the original text file, I had to make a new checksum (the old one verified). The current checksum is ffp and so it is only associated with the audio files. All the audio files are unchanged.
