OU: this is a salvage from the original Bertha 1 computer, back when successful burns of CD were not as reliable as successful rocket launches. Bertha 1 was victim of a crash landing, but the CD she bore of this was not glitchy, saving me a new transfer. this one almost slipped through the cracks, but I caught it, just before it could be forgotten all over again for another 29 years. It's an inspired show
(I'm sure selling out 2 shows this night pleased them), Boston is an XTC appreciating town. etree lists a show on Jan 29 and another Jan. 30, ironically only the 29th one has a setlist of any kind and I believe it matches this show. They only played the 2 shows in 1 night and WBCN broadcast the late one. I haven't heard of any FM recording (or any recording) of the early show, it if exists that would be an aud.
XTC has a live release from London Dec. 22, 1980. it does not include any of this show.
