Comments:

bulletI have very little information about this bootleg. The sound quality is just OK, mono, levels on mike are a little too high, causes crackling. Still, very listenable. There is very little audience noise. Each song fades out at end.  I believe this disc is a compilation of material from the 'Complete Matrix Club Tapes' 4CD set from KTS.
 
bulletThe songs themselves are great. Lots of improvised lyrics.

For example, at the begining of The End (no pun intended) Jim starts "Let's feed ice cream to the rats, baby... Let's stick a smile on the kittens stomach"
Back Door Man contains verses about. "(arrested for?) murder in the first degree, the judges wife said let me free" and "I've got the right to love you, I've got the right to hug you, I've got the right to kiss you, I've got the right to misuse you..."

Does anyone have any other information about this disc?
