There is another source that pre dates this one. The material looks to be the same but the recording supplied for each source came from different people and the dates are different by one day. The first source is dated 06/20/1981 and I supplied the cassette for the transfer. You can see that source here -> (dated 6/20/81)

When I got that cassette back in the early 80's I was told it came from an unknown girl who had said there were 3 more tapes from the Midnights practice sessions but those 3 tapes didn't surface. It may be possible they practiced over several days/dates but the songs shown are a very close match to what I had as 6/20/81. We will need a sonic exam to know if these two are the same recording. I can't wait to listen to them side by side. It is really nice to see a 2nd source tape emerge after all these years. My tape was circulated in 2014 via bittorrent.

After a quick listen, these are not the same recording and source. The other ID didn't have The Women Are Smarter on it. VERY thankful for the new material. It sounds great !
