  2. There is a FLAC version of this gig, and several others: visit http://nowbodhis-blissness.blogspot.com/2017/08/bard-verses-babylon-lkj-65.html for Bremen 1980, Stockholm 1981 and Paris Theatre London 1984 in one download, or http://darkcircleroom4.blogspot.com/search/label/Linton%20Kwesi%20Johnson for the same three gigs (separately) and two others which round off the list of available LKJ boots: Clermont-Ferrand 1983 and Vancouver 1984.

    Cheers,

    Dave Sez.

  3. Damn! No sooner do I put it up than they delete it ... the nowbodhis-blissness.blogspot.com download is dead, but darkcircleroom4 still has this gig and Clermont-Ferrand 1983 in FLAC - go get!

    Cheers,

    Dave Sez.
