Welcome back to the series of probably uncirculated audience recordings. So the story goes, Tape Man Joe attended many concerts. Joe used a Sony D6 with 
a Nakamichi microphone (memories have faded on which exact mic) and TDK metal tapes. Joe made a few copies and gave them to friends but never 
actively traded his recordings. Recently Joe lent a few of his masters to his friend, Jungleland user G (a generous collector himself who has lent tapes from 
his collection to help upgrade many shows). G asked me to finish off the transfers and post them. 

The beginning of the Tunnel Of Love Express Tour found Bruce sticking close to his home field advantage, the East coast. The first venture away from the coast 
found Bruce and the Band in another strong hold Cleveland (technically Richfield Ohio). Only the ninth show of the tour finds the E street Band firing on all 
cylinders.

There are now four known recorders of this show. I'm not sure that recorder three isn't recorder one or two. I have only have heard parts of recorder three.

Recorder One. Cd-r rip by Bosstrade. 
Recorder Two. A tape transfer by Carlo.
Recorder Three. Two of Us Master. 
Recorder Four. Tape Man Joe Master.

In my humble opinion, Joe's recording is easily the best of the lot. It packs plenty punch. Not surprising since Joe used a Nakamichi microphone.

See sound samples below.

Missing first five seconds of Kid Leo's Intro. Patched with Recorder Two.
Tape flip between Cover Me and Brilliant Disguise. Same cut one Recorder One and Two. I don't have Recorder Three.

The show begins with an introduction by Kid Leo. "Part Man, Part Monkey" includes "Love Is Strange" in the outro. "Born To Run" is solo acoustic.
