ROB SEZ: 
HECK YES: New Year's Eve with Pylon. HUGE thanks to the kind trader who shared this with me. He prefers to remain anonymous, and told me this is from a cassette copy of the soundboard master. As received, I only needed to split and tag the tracks, normalize, apply fades, remove dead spots, and apply one pass of modest eq to bring the high frequencies into better balance. No compression and no noise reduction was used in this edit. Vanessa announces Catch as "a new song" (a studio recording appears on the 1990 LP Chain). On this recording, Crazy features a minute-long Randy Bewley instrumental prior to the rest of the band joining in; I like it.
