*Original Notes:*
This is a complete broadcast of the majority of the show. Where you hear a cut in the crowd noise, that is my removing station IDs or lead-ins to commercials as carefully as I could. Also note that The Queen Is Dead is criminally cut short by the radio station. For that track,I chose to fade it out over the station call-sign, as the call-sign was accompanied by music, and destroyed the track anyway.
All told though, this is a great FM recording, in my humble opinion. Hope you think so too. This is the show where Morrissey's infamous comment "I hope the pressure of having to stand on your own two feet isn't too difficult" originated. Hardly a comment that endeared him to the crowd, though one punter can clearly be heard proclaiming his love for the Moz right after that statement.
The Smiths were second on a lengthy bill paying tribute to the G-Mex Center's 10th anniversary. After The Smiths, New Order closed the show. I know that the New Order set has been torrented before on STG, as I downloaded it, but I am not aware of this set being seeded before. If it has, it is from a different source than mine.
This is a transfer from cassette tape. Cassette tape was purchased by me through the back pages of the NME in August, 1986. This is my last FM recording of this band to share. I have a couple of dodgy audience recordings, including one of the only Smiths show that I was witness to myself - at GWU University in Washington DC.
