J-Card Comment FULL SHOW : 79:25 min.

This would've been a very nice tape, if there weren't all these technical difficulties in the overall inhouse sound, beeping and buzzing amps (due to that, which might be resulting from unproper laid connections for the radio broadcast of this show, Sonic Youth in "not the best" mood) and even unholy practise of "stagediving" (listen to Thurston Moore's comments after the closing track!). But, hell it could've been worse. I think this tape was worth to be rescued from being cocooned forever in the cellar below the garage of SEETHELIGHT7's home, where, you know, mighty aggressive eight legged spinners are working all day and all of the night...

Well, I got a bit confused about this show, as the date seemed too familiar with me. Upon digitalizing this tape, I knew what it was about. A few months ago, I've converted the FM Radio broadcast from DIMENEW's collection. That one was - of course - of inferior sound but incomplete. So, here you get the real deal, warts and all. A big thanks to the Concert Chronology site on the web for help with the setlist, but it seems to be there was one more song played, than stated there. According to Mr. Moore's introduction on track # 03, track 4 is "The
wonder -> Hyperstation". But maybe you afficinadoes of the Sonic Youth galaxies know a bit more. This isn't the best recording of the frankoian taping warriors, but it's well worth tracking down. And now, the tape gets rolling...SB.

The usual suspects on stage...

THURSTON MOORE - guitar, vocals
KIM GORDON - bass, vocals
LEE RANALDO - guitar
STEVE SHELLEY - drums
