    Comments: This is Roger's first 1984 date in the US. A complete recording, it is quite rare.

    Disc One:
    'Set The Controls' - The taper begins his recording during the opening verse.
    'Money' - There is a small dropout at 2:26 into the track.
    'Pigs On The Wing (Pt. 1)' - The first tape flip occurs between tracks 7 and 8. The taper used 90 minute tapes.
    'In The Flesh' - Amplitude of the first half of the song is very uneven due to the tape flip and weak batteries.
    'The Gunner's Dream' - Roger apologizes at the end of the song for not singing every verse, because "people were whistling."

    Disc Two:
    '4.47 am' - The second tape flip occurs about 45 minutes after the first. The same wavering recording levels occur for a very short period after the flip.
