I was turned on to Soul Asylum by an old tape trading friend (Katie Dee, Buffalo NY!) in 1988 and have been a huge fan ever since… especially of the 1986-1990 era. They were untouchable then. I just checked the tape list and I have ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY SEVEN live tapes of the band. So, why don’t I post them more often? Well, there are some big fans out there who have done a great job of getting their concerts online, and they have a very good facebook group to discuss the band. When I post there, people are like “who the heck is THIS guy” lol. Many of the shows I have are already online, shoutout to the “littletooclean” channel.
Anyway, I am pretty sure I got this from the guy who taped it. That guy might be Mark Janovec, but I don’t recall him having the type of mics that produce this (low end heavy) type of recording. This was part of a “choice rocks” benefit, which might be a rock for choice thing? There is nothing online about it at all. I just happened to get lucky and find an image of the concert shirt.

Recorded by: ? (possibly Mark Janovec)
