Someone posted an MP3 version of the Hilltop portion so here's a lossless one. I received this in a trade and my trading partner described his discs as being "from silvers" so I thought CD-R(x) would be the safest description.

The tracks were extracted twice with cdda2wav (w/maximum Paranoia) and both rips produced identical checksums.

I've always thought that the 'frying pan' sounds on this recording suggested a vinyl or acetate stage at some point but who knows ?

Thank you. I hope more VU can make it's way to the wonderful land of torrents. Maybe someone has compiled a collection of miscellaneous tracks released across various bootlegs and would like to share it. Nudge, nudge.

yes, thanks so much for this torrent. I know there are many of us severely lacking in vu who greatly appreciate it.

My favourite version of "Run Run Run" ever.

Finally got this down, sounds pretty good. I had always assumed Run, Run, Run was the only recording from the show. Nice surprise, thanks for sharing it!
