Subhumans - Demolition War Pts I-III (1981)

Here is Bluurg Tapes release no. 7 from 1981. My tape was marked Warminster 1980-1981 but as it turns out it is the Demolition War Pts I-III tape with all the tracks being recorded in Warminster in those years. Tracks 1-5 were recorded live and the rest is a rehearsal recording. There are a couple songs that didn't get released back in the day. Track 22 - Song No. 35 was officially released on the Unfinished Business ep which was released in 1998.

Visitors - Stagedoor Tavern, Sydney 7-28-79

These Visitors were from Sydney Australia and featured 3 former members of Radio Birdman with a couple of  roadies filling out the line up. Between 1978 and 1979 they played 12 gigs and recorded one album. This live recording is a raw audience recording and the sound quality is okay. Also, I found this on an unmarked tape and it is missing the last 8 songs. But if you haven't heard this before it might be interesting enough.

Live Tape Performances website

Here is a website that might interest anyone who hasn't found it, yet:
http://www.angelfire.com/oh/liveperformances/livetapes.html

The guy who does it produced and recorded many live Punk, New Wave, and other bands for various radio shows in San Francisco Bay Area in the late 1970s and 1980s. Some of the listings have 30 second samples. He apparently will sell CD-Rs or mp3s of any of the shows. It's an amazing list! Has anyone bought any of his shows?
