This is definitely an upgrade from the millions of bootlegs floating around of this, which is why I chose it as my first Butthole Surfers upload...let's stop the nonsense of shitty bootlegs, shall we?

You can find parts of this available as the 'Acid House', 'Dick Gas 45' and 'Maung' bootlegs, but none of them have the complete broadcast and all of them are from a multi-gen'd source. 

Here is the complete show from the master tape of the original broadcast, including the original IDs cut by the Minutemen and Tex & the Horseheads as the intro! The source tape is a tad old, hence, there is some warble to start off and some slight dynamics loss at times, but still a strong B+ \ A-, and certainly better, and more complete than what has circulated in the past.

The band was a four piece at this time, with only KING on drums, prior to Teresa's return from her hiatus, and post Cabbage's tenure.
