A very nice quality 1981 Circus tour show.
The 'Faith' album and the subsequent tour started the first downfall of The Cure.

taken from 'Bad Medicine':
In the space of a few weeks, both Tolhurst's mother and then Smith's grandmother died.
The subsequent rush of grief led to Faith. Recorded across 10 studios in London, it pushed the group closer to collapse.
"I was taking a lot of coke during the making of that album," admit Smith, "and it was a very difficult and cranky atmosphere. Everything we did was wrong. I was permanently red-eyed and bitter and Faith didn't turn out how I wanted it to at all. I remember finishing the vocals off at Abbey Road and just feeling incredibly empty.
"The whole thing was reinforced by the fact that Ian Curtis had killed himself. I knew that The Cure were considered fake by comparison, and it suddenly dawned on me that to make this album convincing I would have to kill myself. If I wanted people to accept what we were doing, I was going to have to take the ultimate step."
