No good place to split Lipstick Vogue from Watching the Detectives,
so I left them together.
The host says "recorded at the Tower in Philadelphia",
but this is said to be from the Spectrum, 1984.
There are other KBFH versions of this same show, as well as an
audience recording in circulation.

I've tracked and included *everything* on the CD,
partly in case anyone actually wants it all, but mainly
because of the Glenn Tilbrook and Beat Farmers beer ads.
For burning, there are several options:
1.) Just use the 14 tracks above.
2.) or skip 10 and 11 -- the transition from Crowded to Alison is smooth.
3.) or all the tracks above, and place the Tilbrook beer ad between 10 and 11.
4.) or use the lead promo (see below), then Tilbrook ad, 01-10, Beat Farmers ad, then 11-14.
5.) or whatever you like.
For your Ipod, you can easily skip both intros and both outros

As promised, here is my "complete" version of the King Biscuit broadcasts of the 1984 Philly show. It has a few more songs than the previous version shared on DIME, but the sound quality will be slightly inferior to that nicely sourced version. I recorded these shows right off the air on a cassette machine that I can not recall, but the tapes themselves are TDK SA, always my favorite. To digitize them, I played them back on a Nak MRI with azimuth adjusted.
I have also included in the file the other songs from this concert that appeared on the "Grizzly Growl" radio show some years ago. If you want to mix them into the set, I will leave that to your discretion. The Grizzly versions are mixed rather differently and are quite compressed, with an obnoxious amount of audience racket dubbed in between songs. Still you get some pretty damn cool renditions of Inch By Inch and Worthless Thing and some wonderfully sloppy Milk Cow Blues and so forth.
Enjoy.
