Some Great Fall '81
Stateside opening show (1st of 3) for the Fall Europe tour. They were playing Scotland 5 days later (see current Taper's for beginning of Set II.) forewarning - there's brutal tape cut in the killer final jam of Music Never Stopped. Dick's cassettes of this show with audience patches are up on the archive. Huge Set II.
