Artist - Title
Amsterdam Paradiso / 1977

Label: N/A
Audio Source:radio broadcast
Lineage: for example: FM-->tape-->tape --> WAV --> CDR --> EAC --> Foobar --> FLAC 5 --> MWP.
Number of Discs: 1
Artwork:  yes
Total running time: 35m 26s

Notes: This came to me about 20 years ago, a low-gen tape of an early Heads broadcast.  The levels and sound hiccup a touch during the first minute or two,
but then settle down to a reasonable quality.  The broadcast is short but sweet, with the band showing how tight they were, and how good Byrne was on guitar. 
I've had a (very) quick rummage about and can't find it, so I thought I'd share as a first upload. (Be patient with me it's my first.  I've used foobar
because I couldn't get flac frontend to work, and yes, I did all of the suggested workarounds.)
I've always thought of this as a nice, tight set of early stuff, and a broadcast, too.  Worth a listen if you enjoy pre 'Remain in light' heads.
Reminder, it's FLAC 5, NOT 8!
Tracklisting:
01 - Love comes to buildings on fire
02 - Uh oh, love comes to town
03 - Don't worry about tje government
04 - Take me to the river
05 - The book I read
06 - New feeling
07 - Wash that love away
08 - Who is it?
09 - Psycho killer

Artwork converted to two JPEGs (since it was in a .doc file) and uploaded to the Gallery

I kept it as a word doc because I hate art that has word's underlinings on 'wrong' spellings (eg Porcupine Tree's 'The sound of muzak'), which pops up on cover art a fair bit.  Also, if you want to tweak it for your taste, or printer, it's a lot easier.  Anyway, enjoy the broadcast!  Cheers, zzz.

I think the date on this might be 1/14/1978. I'm not sure they played Amsterdam in 1977.

Any info is good.  All that's written on the tape is 77, but possibly Nov?   I have a couple of great Talking Heads fanzines somewhere, and the dates may be within.  Of course, I have to find them first, and I have no idea....
