additional information
This is the eighth tape logged in the Virgin Archive for Street Fighting Years.
Recorded at Sarm during May 1988, it features some of the songs which featured on the album.
Various instrumental mixes of This Is Your Land were recorded, but what
makes this tape interesting are the first recordings of 25 Years (which
was Mandela Day. These were the recordings for BBC Radio One
and were committted to tape on the 25th May 1988. The Master is mostly the same as the final album take,
whilst the other two mixes are just longer and instrumental versions respectively.
The quality is extremely good.
