Remaster Notes:
Another great show from Rob, many thanks to him for all his shares.
This had a number of issues though.
Was to slow so was corrected by 2-3% on a track by track basis.
The pitch was to low so it was increased.
Major amounts of tape hiss, 
this is probably 2nd or 3rd generation from the original at a guess.
Reduced it a lot only really an issue between songs.
Did some restoration & remastering & then a full re-track.
This isn't the whole gig here, missing at least a couple of tracks,
but it is all that is present.
Enjoy...

Remaster Notes:
Great share from Chris, much appreciated.
Excellent soundboard recording.
The only major issue was the speed,
it ran way to fast, so have adjusted down to where it should be.
There is an odd sound artefact in the right channel only.
This comes and goes, probably a tape issue but not sure.
Only really notice it in the between songs sections.
Appears around track 8 and stays for a bit then goes.
Needed a few bits of restoration, then some light remastering touches.
Have re-tracked it as well.
If you like the band then this is a must you can't go wrong here!
