Taper's Comments:

1 - HELP!! If you have any uncirculated SPIRIT shows, or better quality FM
broadcasts than what's been posted here before, please share them. If you
know anybody who has shows that fit this category that aren't on DIME, please
dub off their stuff and share it. I'm trying to write a book on SPIRIT and need
all the information I can get. I have a database of over 1500 gigs 1967-1996, and
want to find as much information as I can to add to it. If you have any memories
of where you saw SPIRIT, the more specific the better (venue, city, date, supporting
bands, etc.), I'd love to know that as well. Please leave that in the comments
section or PM me. Thank you!

2 - Show description & comments follow:
This is one of those rare occurrences where the tape sounds better than what the ears
heard that night. The mix was just too loud, turning the eardrums into mush, but the
tape sounds good. Great band, still going strong, and a great show. It includes a rarely
performed "Cortez The Killer" more than ten years before it showed up in a studio version
on "A Box Of Birds". Enjoy!
