Another KSAN broadcast. The pattern is clear, any of their broadcasts Ken would press into hard copy within weeks and available to the buying public who would know that the quality would be at least decent.
“For many years, the LP of the same name was the only Ian Hunter bootleg album in circulation. Its source is a 1979 FM radio show recorded at the Berkley Community Theatre early in the Schizophrenic tour. The performance is strong, and the playing is top-notch. The band work well together, and are clearly enjoying themselves. By the time this was recorded, the Schizophrenic album was selling strongly, beyond everyone’s expectations, which of course helps enormously.
Sound quality is very good, although a bit muddy in places. This is probably the fault of the mix engineer – it sounds as though the show was recorded straight onto quarter-inch (two-track) for broadcast, with no re-mixing/cleaning up otherwise done.” [www.hunter-mott.com]

Significant upgrade over the other upload of this show. Very good to excellent sound quality. Mostly a combination of 2 low gen. reels but also has KSAN DJ bits spliced in from the previous seeded copy in a few spots. Monophonic recording up to end of track 9. Stereo for the remainder except for the announcer splices from the previous seed.
