But I notice it's available on some massive torrents. Although without the interesting Eno interview in which he explained how the John Cale track on '1974' got out of synch with Cale's vocals since he couldn't hear the foldback - which if you listen to 'Heartbreak Hotel', makes sense. What a great era when being a muso kind of mattered. I had a tape of that back in 1975, which has long since been lost. But I notice it’s available on some massive torrents.
