vg NOTES (2/23/2023):
--Thanks so much to whomever originally recorded & shared out this the Radiators 1986 show & to mossa for the transfer & sharing of his copy far & wide for all of us. Absolutely Appreciated!!  
--there are numerous times & sections during this recording that the sound pulls to the Left (for much of the show, really)...I have heard this many times before & can only assume that the heads of one of the cassette decks during one of the generations was not aligned & therefore the Left channel in those sections is slightly ahead of the Right...I can fix this & probably will someday when I have the time, but careful attention to detail must be paid while doing this as sometimes it comes back into time alignment & one has to be aware when it settles back to center to not then pull that out of whack, etc.  Also would like to remaster this in conjunction with Goody to get it speed corrected properly & make it really shine as it's a pretty special night in the history of this band
--the Radiators 8th Anniversary as a band
--there's not very much missing at the end of "Jigsaw"...they are wrapping it up & bringing it to a close there
--just a few notes missing at the beginning of "Nightmare On the Misery Train"...starts well before the first lyrics are sung
--the splice in "Born On the Bayou" happens at 3:42 into the tune
--the splice in "Hard Core" happens at 4:50 into the tune, right during the "shake your body (down to the ground)" rap part
--the splice in "Hard To Handle" happens at 1:35 into the tune...right after the lyrics "...advertising love for free" & jumps to the middle of a guitar solo
--there is another cut at the end of t38 (after the song is over)...they are saying something there that gets cut off & then t39 just kind of abruptly starts...possible that this is where the encores started??  not sure
--I added more detail to the band members info & setlist info
--corrected some song titles toward how they appear on the original albums...also a couple other setlist corrections of the actual song that was there
--added more detail to the venue info
--this venue opened on January 14, 1977 & facility was originally known as "The 501 Club"...the building itself was constructed in 1912, and prior to becoming Tipitina's, it served as a gambling house, gymnasium, and brothel - it closed down for a time during 1984 because the local music scene was drawn to the "1984 World's Fair" & during this time it was remodeled & a higher ceiling was added to the venue...this particular Radiators show was the reopening of the new & improved Tipitina's
