    starting with track 15 - a rare insertion of reckless "samson and delilah" between "help on the way" and "slipknot!" They restart slip afterward from a full stop (track 19). Not bad quality for an audience tape.

  3. You know Gene, when you wrote "no fair peaking in the comments," I kinda thought you would give us the answer in the comments, especially after a few days went by.

    From your latest hint, I have to guess that it is either Darryl Hall or Stu Morgenstern. Yes?

  5. Oh, and I meant the comments at the site where the music is -- 'Hall and Oates' is mentioned there.
