Memories and notes
This partial recording captures approximately half of Cardiacs' performance at the 1982 Stonehenge Free Festival.
It is historically important for preserving the earliest known live recordings of three songs later released on The Seaside.
The recording begins part-way through Jibber and Twitch. Although the fidelity is limited, the tape remains clear and highly listenable overall.
The original Agfa master cassette was owned by Trevor Hughes, who may also have recorded the concert. The tape was transferred by dlz1965 in January 2023 using a TEAC W1200 deck and Roland R-07 recorder.
