Released in Germany as a bootleg called “I Sing You Under The Table”, possibly 1986.

Gatefold cover, handmade silk-screen printing!
Each label is custom-stamped with a different stamp.
Also, Side 1 is backed with side 3 and side 2 backed with side 4.

The track listed on the bootleg coverart as Part Of The Act is actually the first 20 seconds of Ruby’s Arms,
which suddenly stops due to a microphone feedback, after which and Tom goes into
some impromptu piano playing and storytelling.
Take Care Of All My Children is listed as I’m Goin’ To See My Lord.

  • – To cover the track split at a tape flip here, track 15 was patched in from another tape of this show
    Some microphone break-up in places, but not too intrusive
    This show is presented in glorious mono.

Recording lineage

Unknown recorder, probably Panasonic -> cassette(0) -> copied to Cassette(1)

Playback / Encoding lineage

Technics Cassette Deck -> Alesis Masterlink @ 44.1kHz, 16-bit (track splits, level increase, and patch in track 15)
-> CDR -> EAC to .wav -> TLH to .flac
TLH sez no need to fix SBEs – files already sector-aligned
