LDB Special Series #08 

Hello! As mentioned, here is a new series from my collection. After the Master Series, here is the Special Series. Out of my 
6,000+ shows and radio broadcasts, I have many concerts that were special for some reasons: the setlist, the musicians, the 
venue or unexpected events. These are the ones I'd like to propose you. Most of these come from my cassettes collection, so 
they will be released at a slower pace than my Master Series! But you won't be disappointed! I will try to gather the most 
unusual things I have in my collection and, as always, your feedback and comments will be my reward for all the work involved 
in this project.

I transferred two additional tracks from my first generation tape, then I worked quite a lot to set tracks in the right order
as they were performed that night. Hope the transition between the two sources is not noticed. This is currently the longest
available version of the Paradiso show as it lacks only the first encore (Landlord). I did not insert the DJ outro of the
2007 re-broadcast because I had to insert the last encore instaed. Enjoy!
