There must be some out there who like to remake/remodel
old music recordings (Hi Bill) !
Here are the original mp3 files. There is some nasty intermittent
hiss/noise and the bass is a bit low....... I tried to correct both
but I'd love to hear any other remaster jobs !

I've just heard the recent full show 27th May 1980 - very nice...
I had a great Eureka moment when I heard 'Silver Blades' by Fashion
('Girls on Ice and Boys in Bars') - I had that on a comp tape at the
time, alongide 'Ricky's Hand' (Fad Gadget) and 'Marie Celeste' by
Greg Vandike.
