im listen to this 30 years to the day and since this is the only show here for 1-12 i give it a great rating for a nice aud tape. i am usually a sb guy and shy away from aud tapes but to me this captures the feel of a great 79 show before brent joins the boys. im giving it five stars to help of set the sid weiss two star. it is definitely a show i would have loved to have had back in the day. people are so spoiled these days
