Here’s a nice surprise for On This Date in History. I knew I had posted the White Flag portion of this before so I was checking the archived spindles for tape #314, since it had to be digitized already… but it wasn’t there. Some searches of the 2 RAIDs led me to it- I hadn’t digitized my tape, I had digitized Bruce Wingate’s better quality tape!

So enjoy this better quality version of White Flag plus the (main) AOD portion. This was one of my all time favorite tapes that I traded for, so big thanks to George Norton of sending it my way back in 1986! And of course thanks to Bruce for trusting me with his stuff a couple years ago.

I can’t remember the details, but White Flag was in studio and hopped on AOD’s gear and then had to hurry to catch a flight.. that they barely made? Missed? Can’t remember.

As I was writing this up, I realized that Paul’s vocals were buried. In fact, the mix was super heavy on guitar.. so I rebalanced it and reuploaded it. Enjoy!
