Sometimes it makes me think it was assembled from two different tapes, but this is just my impression. There's a cut in the bridge of "Roxanne", probably for a tape flip since it's approx @45:45. No, I haven't heard a cut on "Can't stand losing you", contrary to other circulating copies. There are some cuts in between the songs, where commercials and speaker announces were cut out (not by me). The sound clears up in the middle of "Next to you", like someone forgot to insert/remove Dolby, or pressed some Chrome switch on the tape decks. Side B of my tape (a TDK SA-C60) starts a bit more closed at the high frequencies, opening up again with "Roxanne". On this tape there is one of the rare performances of "Truth hits everybody" half tempo, that was put on the vinyl bootleg "From Tokyo to Chile with excitements". There's a rather embrionic version of "Reggatta de blanc", mixed with some "Banana boat" verse as usual for this period. No eq, no noise reduction, no speed adjustment.
