New Wave Prog 29/8/77

I'm new to this group and would like to make a contribution.

I have an almost complete tape of the 2 hour New Wave prog from 29 August 1977 - missing only the last minute or so, when my tape ran out.  I also cheated in the middle and faded out the very end of Gen X's Youth Youth Youth so that I could turn the tape over.

It was recorded in stereo on a good hi-fi (my Dad's!), with a good roof aerial, but onto a cheap C120 tape.  There is a small break after 15 min of side 1 (15 min before the end of side 2) where the tape got chewed and I had to repair it.  This break led me to look for another copy online.  It seems that there isn't one (not as complete as mine, anyway).

I have made a VIP file of the tape by recording it to Magix Audio Cleaning Lab from the headphone socket of a modest portable stereo.  I can upload either this VIP file, an mp3, or a wav.  I'd even be willing to lend someone the tape if they think they can make a better copy of it.

If I do upload it, please advise how best to do it (including how to make the upload available to the group), because I've not done this before.

Regards
Kevin Singleton
