From John's txt file from the show," It's not every day you see a recording like this surface. I finally got permission from the taper to bring
this recording out to you. From what I've gathered there was no known source to this show in the trading circles. I searched the internet high & low and nothing pertaining to this show turned up. So... here it is !
Guns & Roses in their prime, the boys are playing a pretty tight set and Axl's voice is strong, singing on all cylinders hitting the highs & the lows this night. At the time this show was recorded, Guns & Roses were showcasing new songs from their "G'nR Lies" album. The master cassette used
for the transfer was starting to suffer from "tape oxidation" at the very beginning and at the end of the show-I don't think you'll notice that too much as I gave my very best efforts in the digital restoration part of doing this production. I think you are really going to like this show! There is feed back coming from the speakers every now and then and no noise or hiss reduction was used in this production. I did add some bass eq to balance this recording, and the reason for that
is the taper doesn't recall where he was standing when he recorded this show, he recalls he was extremely stoned on marijuana and mentioned to me that it was loud as hell in that Montezuma Hall at SDSU. This is evident in the recording itself, the band is almost overpowering the taper's recording equipment. The taper refers to himself anonymous as the; "Mad Taper", he's brought you other recordings in the past under Let It Rip Productions. Well, anyways, I'm just glad to bring this show out to you all and as with Let It Rip Productions, justtrade 'em, torrent 'em and please do not exchange currency for the recordings we bring to you
because this recording, and especially this recording, is intended to be shared amongst fans.
Enjoy !
John "
