Yes. Great album.

I've got the double vinyl.

If playing back via an AVR, I recommend trying it with ProLogic processing.  My suspicion is that the mix done for the hifi stereo VHS release of this concert was also used for the vinyl and cassette releases.

A bit of Marillion on a Thursday night.  "Seasons End' their first outing without Fish.

Genesis Live At Knebworth 1978. I taped this off the BBC Radio 1 Friday Rock Show on the 17th of February 1984. The levels are low but damn when it's cranked up this still sends shivers up my spine and takes me back 34 (!!!) years and I can remember lying on the floor with my headphones on taping it.

 

The bog standard Sony BHF and especially the AHF were bloody good tapes.

Listening to a home recording on some TDK blank tapes I recently recorded.  The stand is my first attempt at 3D printing!

Came across some great original cassettes yesterday that look and sound unplayed. Currently playing on the Sony walkman.
