There is also a gap after = !!

Links should be working without the gaps,

Ken

I can get the first part by closing the gap in the megauplo ad.com but not the others. Has anyone else had problems or a solution (even better!)

Thanks

Pash

The tape automatically flips to reverse record therefore between parts a and b, c and d, and e and f, and these flips are therefore almost instantaneous, with less than second missing. There are a few seconds missing from Gene's penultimate live number Where Are They Now?, when the first tape got to end side 2, and there's a momentary pause before the second deck fires in for part c - but seeing as that number and indeed Gene's entire performance that night is commercially available on their Peel Sessions double CD (Polydor/Universal 2006), that's hardly a loss and a reconstruction of the gap would be possible if anyone were so minded (though I can't see much point myself) [NB. listening back to the tape and my CD just now to check, I heard Martin Rossiter crediting Mick Talbot as guesting on keyboards, so that's another

The only possibly longer gap is between parts d and e, when I had to pop into the room and put a third tape in tape deck A, I suppose, because the deck will only record on two decks in order, it won't go back and do tape deck one again (I have no memory of any of this of course but logically this is what I must have done), and so John's well known anecdote about the Faces at Newcastle or Sunderland is truncated and maybe 30 secs to one minute are lost from Stay With Me. Again, not much of a loss, in my view, in the circumstances.

And so in the end the long journey was worth it, wasn't it?

I wasn't going to rip them at all, but this is such an excellent show that in this case it might be worth the trouble.

This 5th and penultimate installment concludes John's memories from the 70s, then it's Cha Cha Cohen's somewhat inconsequential, noodling cover of Interstellar Overdrive, Dave Angel's disappointingly short live mix set, a montage of John's 80s memories, finally leading into one of the best things of the night, Broken Dog's special cover of The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down (I know, I know, this is wrongly attributed to the Pastels in the book, and all the time I had the tapes somewhere unknown), but in another cruel blow from the gods, the tape flips a few seconds in. So you'll have to wait another week to hear it in full.
