Welcome back to the series of probably uncirculated audience recordings. So the story goes, Tape Man Joe attended many concerts. Joe used a Sony D6 
with a Nakamichi Mic (new for him in 1988) 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. 

The Pittsburgh Tunnel of Love show became well represented in 2007, when a fantastic recording was shared on Dime by user Tapdancinbat. The uploader 
stated that he received it from the taper. It is easily one of the best audience recordings from the tour. It's best known by the edit done by EV2 
"Prisoner of Pittsburgh". I didn't ask the usual suspects how many recorders are out there. While this is another fine recording by Tape Man Joe, it is 
not an upgrade to the other recording. For sake of, I'll call the other Recorder One and Tape Man Joe's Recorder Two. 

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

Tape flip between Roulette and Cover Me. Patched with 5 seconds from Recorder One. 


From Brucbase:
"Raise Your Hand" features a guest appearance from Joe Grushecky. "Part Man, Part Monkey" includes "Love Is Strange" in the outro. "Born To Run" 
is solo acoustic.

Audience tape of excellent quality 'Prisoner Of Pittsburgh' (Ev2). About 90 minutes of audience shot video circulates.
