The Stranglers - All Live And All Of The Night
Epic Records
Cat# 460259 4
1988
Australian release
Clamshell is in very good condition, this is a sealed clamshell (no screws) so there is no chance of properly re-lubricating if this ever became necessary. Card insert is in good condition but with light crinkling to the rear of the slip cover.
Test cassette machine: Nakamichi DR8
Prior to testing, tape was repacked (FF - RW - FF - RW) to ensure even tape loading. This is vital for cassette tapes that have been unplayed for considerable periods of time.
Tape media is in very good visual condition, but the only real way to judge the condition of magnetic tape media is to actually play it, so I have played both sides of this tape.
Audio is full range and bright, plenty of high end and lows. No drop outs. No tape sticking or other transport issues which could indicate dried out lubricant. Head pad is in place and secure.
No issues at all, complete with live banter with the audience from Hugh
These live recordings were made during concerts in UK, absolute classic Stranglers in this set
