My comments: This recording, The Real Lei,
has NEVER been circulated. Volume dips at the start of Layla.
Ignore the crowd between tracks.
The crowd quiets during the songs. Delicate Beauty
by Cross Border may be soundboard, but, IMHO, this 
is real good...the real thing!

Does anyone ever see hbpackers downloading and
always leaving nice comments ending with the word mahalo?
Today, I say Mahalo (thank you) to hbpackers! This is all
his recording. I hope everyone gives him a big mahalo!

hbpackers comments:
Wow!  Over 29 years ago, both EC and I were young pups back
then!!  I was still in college but graduated later on that semester.  
Life was so good then...sigh.  Anyway, this recording was done on 
a hand-held monaural Panasonic cassette recorder with a built-in 
mic (...no way I remember what the model was). Used two Maxell 
tapes but flipped them as they were getting close to the end 
(...restarted the recording on the exact opposite side of the tape, 
no rewinding to get back to the beginning of the B side). My goal 
was not to let the tape run out in the middle of a song. The strategy 
worked fine except at the end when I ran out of tape and didn't dare
try to figure out how to tape over a section not used 
(...plus I was too busy enjoying the performance).  "KTTH" was the 
last song so it is the only one incomplete.  For the pictures used in 
the artwork, I used a Canon AE-1 (...black body, of course!) 
and a Canon 80-200 zoom.  Many thanks to Kini for digitizing my 
tapes so that this show could be shared.  
I never thought this recording was good enough to share with 
anyone other than my friend Steve, who's sitting next to me and 
some of the great uploaders - ECMM, Musicfinder and 38f - 
but ECMM was pumped and thought it was very listenable.  
I hope you all enjoy this show as much as I did.

Upped exclusively for free trading and enjoyment by 
Yours Truly, ECMM
