1984-11-02 Hammersmith Odeon, London, England, UK/Source 3

== Notes ==
A very good FM broadcast recording. The previous transfer of this recording was a little bass heavy and had a sort of "breathing" effect to them due to Dolby mistracking. This retransfer was done on the final high-end cassette deck Nakamichi manufactured versus a Sony Walkman Pro that was, according to the taper, "past its best". It is a big upgrade in sound quality and sounds significantly better overall. Bass is improved, all high frequencies are present as they should be, there is significantly less wow & flutter, and there are no Dolby mistracking artifacts. The only thing I had to do to the audio was adjust the speed and apply a bit of normalization to even out the channels somewhat. Thanks for your effort in retransferring your original tape and for providing a high-resolution 24/96 transfer, twosheds!
This FM broadcast recording is incomplete, as the "Steve Blacknell intro", and "Something To Do" are missing entirely. Additionally, If You Want fades in and misses the initial atmospheric intro before the song starts. Moreover, Everything Counts is missing the first couple seconds, but this is the case on all pre-FM and FM broadcast variants; leaving only the raw soundboard cassette (Source 2) with a complete introduction.
Additionally, this FM broadcast included Blasphemous Rumours which is not found on the BBC pre-FM promotional vinyl, but misses "Puppets" which is present on that release. I have read that there was another radio broadcast which included "Puppets", but a recording of that broadcast has not surfaced yet. Nonetheless, "Puppets" can be found on the pre-FM vinyl, so it is not a big loss.
