Notes:

  • This recording is missing Middletown Dreams, Witch Hunt, Red Sector A (all after Manhattan Project), Marathon (after Closer To The Heart), Mystic Rhythms (after The Trees), and all but five seconds of In The Mood. The tape is stopped multiple times throughout the show, likely done to ensure capturing certain songs on one 90 minute cassette. Either that, or the missing songs were captured, but omitted when making a copy of the tape onto another cassette.
  • This is an "okay" recording, not great, but not awful. What makes this tape interesting is that there has been no recording for this date to circulate online prior to February 2025. It has long been one of the few remaining shows from 1985 to not have a known recording. Special thanks to Dave (blue_goo) for contributing his transfer of the tape he found among his old bootleg cassettes. In his words, it was "purchased from a vendor at a northeast Ohio record convention back in the early 90's."
