This casette is truly one of the greatest recordings to ever come out of this town. Jim Backus, Check Out My Butt, not to mention a Pirates Life. Pure genius. I can see Martijn on stage at the State in his jumpsuit like it was yesterday. Peeters and his flashpots... A nice run up the neck followed by a burst of flame from the headstock. How does it get better?
