The bootleg gives no additional location/date information beyond New Jersey '92.

Track 6 fades out at the end. Track 7 fades in at the middle of the first line of lyrics. Sounds like there could be some other possible edits and/or rearrangement--for example, the stage banter/song introduction from "In Union We Stand" sounds like it's from earlier in the show, not an encore.

On track 13, the band skips the final verse or so of "I Hate" and goes directly into "Fuck You."

No recording/location information given; bootleg states "this is an excellent Radio Show Recording." Tracks 1-7 are of excellent quality, and Blitz mentions they are being recorded. I was told the Boston date above may be correct, but I cannot confirm that. In any case, Blitz gives a dedication to a guy at WSOU and asks the crowd if they've heard of it, so it would have to be somewhere not too far from New Jersey.

There is a fadeout at the end of track 7 and tracks 8-13 (which begin with an air raid siren intro) are of a lower soundquality. During the second part, at the end of track 10, Blitz welcomes the crowd to L'Amour, but he also mentions something about The Ritz and it being a hectic night for the crowd (was there some other gig or event he's referencing?). Biohazard and Dark Angel are mentioned as the openers, so this show is from March 9, 1990. Overkill also played again on the 10th at L'Amour with Dark Angel and Machine.

The recording info and label name/serial number are only on the disc itself.

I cannot verify the date, although the tracklisting does indeed narrow it down to the '90/'89 period. Allentown is definitely the location, as it's mentioned in the stage banter, and Blitz also mentions it's Saturday night.

Track 1 fades in; Blitz introduces the band, and then there's a crowd call-and-response with the chorus of "Fuck You" and "I Hate!"

Track 5 fades out and track 6 fades in. Since Blitz tells the crowd good night at the end of "Electro-Violence," and tells them "See you next time" at the end of "Overkill," I'm assuming the last 3 tracks are the encores and the edits were made to cut out the down time.

Since track 1 has band introductions and "Hello from the Gutter" isn't here (which would be very strange for that time period), it's very likely the show is incomplete. Comparing it to some other documented shows around that time, I'd say probably about 1/3 of the set is missing. The good news is that it doesn't look like anything was edited out or rearranged between the track 5/6 fades, as the songs seem to be in a similar order to the other gigs.

Just a so-so bootleg. Although it sounds like it was an energetic show, the sound isn't all that hot--the guitars are mostly just a muddy wall of sound behind the drums and vocals. The relatively short length doesn't help any.

Date seems to be correct, as Blitz mentions San Francisco and some of his comments indicate it's their first time there (actually, I believe this show might have been their very first ever gig in California). This would have been the first of two consecutive nights at The Stone during their tour with Slayer.

Sound quality of the live tracks is a bit rough. There are minigaps and/or breaks between all the live tracks, and between tracks 1 and 2 there's some missing stage banter. Tracks 6 and 7 are the exact same recording of "Blood and Iron," so the bootlegger obviously screwed up when pressing the disc.

Overall, the sound quality on the first part of this bootleg is pretty good, except what I assume to be the bass is only a noisy rumble in the background.

Tracks 13 and 14 are listed as live bonus tracks with no additional information--these are the same as the first 3 tracks of the "Hello from the Gutter" bootleg, although the stage banter between "Skullcrusher" and "Fuck You" is edited out.

The entire "Overkill" EP and both tracks 10/11 have since been released officially as bonus tracks on "Fuck You and Then Some!"

Track 8 is the same version that appears on "Metal Massacre 5."

Tracks 12-15 are only listed as being live in Europe '86. The Bochum set was videotaped and appears on the "Metal Hammer Roadshow/US Speed Metal Attack" video (also featuring Anthrax and Agent Steel), so the bootleg may have been sourced from the video footage. There are no obvious breaks, but you can hear editing points between these live tracks when listening closely to the crowd noise for abrupt stops/starts.

Curiously, "Second Son" came directly after "Rotten to the Core" in the set, but they still chose to edit out about 10 seconds of the crowd chanting the band's name that occurs between the very end of "Rotten..." and Blitz's call-and-response intro to "Second Son."
