Notes Here's a great show from Soul Asylum back in the days when the Village Voice referred to them as the "Best Live Band in America." The band is at the peak of their powers and this show is miles away from the "Runaway Train" crap that would soon follow. This was originally supposed to be an outdoor show, but got moved inside because of rain. Apparently nobody told the sound guy, because this was one of the loudest shows I've ever witnessed. It was a free show that took place at 5pm on a Friday afternoon at Marquette University (where I believe Dave Pirner's younger brother attended classes). I recorded this show with a boombox that I set up in the back of the room. The P.A. volume overloaded the built-in mics so there is some distortion to be heard, but the massive volume also eliminates almost all the background audience sounds during the songs. I'd give the sound quality about a "7.5" on a scale of 1 to 10. All edits are exactly as they are on the master tape, except for a fade out I added at the end after the show was over. No songs were missed and this is a virtually complete show. I created some artwork and also included some photos from the show. Enjoy!
