AUD>1ST GEN CASSETTE>STAND ALONE BURNER>WAV>FLAC

This is one of my most prized possessions – tape wise. Always felt very lucky to have this baby on the shelf. Not nearly as lucky as the guy who I got this from. An American who got a private Rifles show [at their rehearsal space] in ’83! And he had the foresight and presence of mind to have his recorder with him, thank goodness. The mind boggles. He is also someone who walks the walk. The setlist completely loaded. Multiple David Johansen covers as well as WGGOOTP which, lets face it, in ’83 might as well have been a Johansen cover too. However, this version seems more informed by the Angelic Upstarts version. But I digress. Let’s see, what else – multiple Only Ones covers and some *uber-rare* originals. Oh, and James Darroch is in the house! SQ is fine, if not too hi-fi. One for the ages. I am pretty sure this has not been circulated, but you never know…
