WBCN From the Vaults. A performance from when John Mellencamp was more rock 'n' roll than MTV. This was probably broadcast with one commercial break before Great Midwest, which was been edited out by the taper. WBCN seems to have tightened up the show a bit by removing crowd noise, which is sometimes noticeable. But mostly the band plays non-stop for over an hour.
