Welcome to the ninth in a series of probably uncirculated audience recordings. So the story goes, Tape Man Joe attended many concerts. Joe used a Sony D6 with either 
Sony 929 or 939 microphones (memories have faded on which exact mic) and TDK metal tapes. Joe made a few copies and gave them to friends but never actively traded his 
recordings. Recently Joe lent a few of his masters to his friend, Jungleland user G (a generous collector himself who has lent tapes from his collection to help 
upgrade many shows). G asked me to finish off the transfers and post them. 

We return to the Spectrum skipping over 09-12 for the moment and going to the third show of the stand. Not much else needs to be said about this run of shows, but I'll
let a quote from G himself sum up this performance.

"I was there. One of the best shows I ever saw, he was in a great mood, and he came out at 8:30 played til 10. Came back at 10:45 and digital clock in the Spectrum said 
12:59am when he walked down the steps behind the stage where I was sitting. Just a fantastic show"!

This to my knowledge is the second recorder to circulate. All other recordings including the Doberman release "The Full Spectrum" come from the same tape. There
are only two small patches required (details below). To my ears, Joe's tape is a little closer to the stage with a little more life to it. The fans around Joe while
knowledgeable, are "colorful" to say the least. 

Thanks to Tape Man Joe for recording and sharing his tapes and G for transferring the files.

From Brucbase:
Features The Miami Horns on "Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out" and the last two encores. Set includes "My Father's House" and "Jersey Girl". "Glory Days" includes a couple bars
of "Out Of Limits" in the introduction. "Growin' Up" features the bear story. Soundcheck features "Across The Borderline", written by Ry Cooder, John Hiatt and Jim 
Dickinson. Bruce will eventually perform this song on the Tunnel of Love Express Tour.
