Comments: This recording has previously been available as "Last Signal". The source that was used for that had a problem with the music (especially the bass) bleeding through from the reverse side of the tape resulting in some strange distortions. The source for this, provided by The Old Dog, does not suffer from this problem so can be considered an upgrade from Last Signal.
Last Signal includes a radio interview with Neil Peart. Since it was not on the tape I have not included it in this release.
To the gig and the recording. A decent sounding show with a very lively audience as you can tell from Geddy's requests for everyone to calm down to prevent crushing at the front. I can testify to the bedlam at the front since I was up against the barrier right in front of Lerxst at this gig :-). There are a couple of cuts, Xanadu and La Villa Strangiato are both truncated. Thanks to The Old Dog for the tape. Thanks also to Nephronic for the artwork. Look closely, it's a Rush Cow !
