All thanks and praise go to killerwolf13 for making this available to
all of you John Osbourne fans (who's he ?). He sent me several tapes 
that I'm converting to CD-R for him and this is one of those. The SQ 
of this is very good plus so enjoy it and thank killerwolf13 for his 
great generosity.  

I was NOT at this show so this description will be very short. Clear
vocals and instruments. No distortion, no speed problems, intermittent 
mild hiss. Hardly any audience talking. Ozzy's stage banter is a bit
hard to understand. Nothing else bad to report so enjoy this one. This 
may be a liberated bootleg but it's not listed in Hot Wacks so I don't
know. Hey, I'm just like Ozzy ; I don't know. Didja get it ? I don't
know. That's about all that I know about this show so if you have any 
questions about tape generation, etc., post a question to killerwolf13 
in this torrent. There are a few more audio treasures to come... 

That's about all that I have to say, so let's wrap this up. 
No buy, no sell, no mp3. Please seed this as long as you can.
I will post a sample to help people decide if they want this
but trust me, it's not bad at all, especially for a 1980 analog
audience tape. Listen to this on headphones for an enjoyable
experience! Well, thanks for reading this and Mr. Natural 
would like to add these few comments: have fun, don't freak out 
and by all means, enjoy the concert!!!
