According to the incredible spreadsheet Scott Z compiled for us, the only version of this show posted to U2Torrents was by danafletcher, who said his version was a C, had cuts, etc. Scott's own list has the show from an unknown source and rated an 8.

This version is likely second generation (sorry, my notes are incomplete), and the sound quality is very good though the incredibly boisterous audience does overwhelm in several spots, especially at the start. In fact, the tape runs very hot as the crowd's zeal peaks to distortion on my copy though the actual music never distorts. When the yelling lessens, the underlying recording is quite appealing, clear and full. Samples provided.

I obtained these tapes in 1988. I wish I could tell you who recorded, what gear or even if this is the same source as Dana's or Scott's only closer to source. Perhaps someone can shed some light.

The performance is excellent and the set list topsy turvy (it opens like an UF tour show), which is probably the result of this being the third night of three in the Boston area.

From the same source I also received the previous night, 5/3/87, which I will post as well. A preview sample of that is provided, too.

Butterking for JEMS, happy that the Nakamichi deck is finally fixed and better than ever

special thanks to Mike Duchek for pitch consultation
