comments:
this concert is announced as the 1st time AC/DC ever played in Boston.
It is taken from a rebroadcast, I believe just a few seconds are missing
from the end of "bad boy boogie", apparently from not getting the tape
cued properly during the commercial break in the re-broadcast. That is
the only interruption in this recording.
When this was first broadcast live, I had no idea who AC/DC are, this was
re-broadcasted in the early 90's, maybe late 80's. I've had a request to
post this, and think a few folks might want to hear this. I thought this
was already upped here, so I've never posted my recording. maybe it fell
off the tracker, in any case this is all from my FM master recorded over WBCN.
If anyone wishes to try and patch in the missing part of track 5, the break
has been spliced but it's an easy one to find, and though noticable, not the
worst of a spliced transition I've ever done either (which may not be saying much.)

Do not sell this recording.
Trade freely and losslessly.
Trades Allowed Yes
