this has rapidly become my favorite Costello show.

it's not perfect, but it's fun, loud, gritty, and it's got lots of BALLS.
i'll take that over perfect all day long.

########UNCIRCULATED WBCN BROADCAST########

source recorded and transferred by allsoundz
polishing and compression/seed by shacklyn75

notes: SBD adjustments thru 1:00 of track 01
minor mix adjustments throughout

allsoundz was kind enough to offer this for circulation.
as with previous sources, this is an AMAZING capture of a historic event.
started in 1968, WBCN (Boston Concert Network) was an early landmark of
"free-form radio" incorporating many live broadcasts from the Boston area halls.
allsoundz had the foresight to flip the switch on that reel deck and now,
more than 30 years later, you get to hear this powerful performance.
