J-Card Comment Description: Well here it is folks, again! Originally from the blackout archives this phenominal recording met all the criteria for a really great recording it just
needed a bit of TLC. I basically re-assembled the show knocked the tape hiss back a bit, then balanced the volume between channels and tracks. I then removed most of the fades
so it ran as smoothly as possible and repaired any pops and clicks as I found them.

It still has the original cuts as listed below, I did consider splicing in the missing section from a different source of the same show. But the drop in quality of the added
sections would have ruined this lovely recording.

Please listen to the before and after samples at the end of the first post before downloading.

Finally a massive thanks to Blackout for this fantastic recording, 1978 Bowie shows don't come much better than this.
