The Catalyst
Santa Cruz, California

Audience cassette master - sound quality is pretty decent though not spectacular. There are a few microphone handling noises and slightly cut songs, but overall it's really all OK and I expect this to be enjoyable to anyone who would consider listening to an Iggy audience tape in the first place...

I recall that Iggy played two nights in a row and I loaned my equipment to a friend to record one or both of them with his girlfriend's help. They were not experienced tapers at all and were lucky to have done this well. In the end. the other night did not end up getting recorded and so this is all that I have of the two shows. Seems to be a tour that was not very well documented as Iggy recordings go - although I bet there are other tapes that haven't surfaced yet...

ENJOY & SHARE!
