It’s mediocre Monday! I thought this one qualified because the quality is not great at the start of the set, but it improves dramatically. I wonder if this comes from 2 different sources- the 1st part of the set sounds like a rough audience tape, and the 2nd part is clearly a board tape. Great set.

From Barry Ward’s collection
Here is another amazing artifact from Barry Ward’s cassette collection. This is the earliest RKL show I have ever heard, and apparently it is the earliest show on the internet as well. They talk about their upcoming 7″ release of It’s a Beautiful Feeling!
This one was pretty raw but clean enough for me to remix it a bit. It was light on guitar and very harsh with the high end so I did what I could to fix that up. Thanks Barry!
