notes: SHELTER-National Campaign for the Homeless benefit ripped from the original RoIO LP this raw transfer from vinyl has obviously tics and pops, but it sounds less hissy than the other versions I listened to (great part of the RoIO is not hissy at all). Echoes is not complete fading out at the very end, OotD fades out as well (a good many is missing) and is misplaced at the end of the first set ... Set The Controls is completely missing. the recording runs too fast, it does exist a speedcorrected version that I wouldn’t prefer to this one anyway, maybe the LP used as source for this speedcorrected version by MoLM was not as much spotless ...
