    Kindly provided by TJ, this recording catches the band in high spirits as they play to an appreciative Canadian crowd. The gig falls in two parts. The first, proper set features six songs, climaxing with a truncated Blue Monday. Then, by way of a very long encore, the band perform another seven tracks, starting this time with a full Blue Monday (since the taper's friend can be heard asking, "didn't they already play this one?", it's definitely the start of the encore, and not of a separate second set). Cries & Whispers features one of Hooky's brothers on vocals (because it was his birthday) and Thieves Like Us is another early, and very long, rendition.

    This recording is not without flaws. It's fairly hissy in some parts, and very hissy in other ones (lineage unknown). There are also cuts before and after the second version of Blue Monday, and the ending of Everything's Gone Green is cut. Finally, the two cassette sides played at different volumes and speeds. I raised Side 1 by 1.5 dB and slowed it down by 8.705 %; Side 2 was raised by 3 dB and slowed down by 4.93 %. However, don't let all this deter you: it's a very enjoyable recording of a great gig!
