An odd request, as I know there are currently no tapes existing out there of the Sydney shows, but is there anyone with some connections in Australia that could get possibly get a tape? I've always found it insane that out of the 10 nights, with 7 in one city, they played in the country, only 1 show exists from it. It's easily my holy grail for Clash bootlegs, as I really love the Far East tour. It's the band completely at it's hight for me. What is also infuriating about it is that the ABC most likely has a soundboard tape in their vaults that is sitting there collecting dust. I hope someday we're able to hear something from the shows there.

Does anyone have a link to the Columbus 1984 gig? Cheers!
This is a top 3 show for me, so it'd be amazing to hear the soundboard.
It goes on to say;
"A major upgrade advertised on ebay in 2004 has significantly the best sound. It reveals the master recording as a superb quality audience source. The sound quality is so good it appears at first that it must be from a pro-soundboard source but voices heard at times near the microphone suggest otherwise. The sound quality is so good that it must come from very close indeed to the original master recording.
The upgrade cdr is less harsh, has greater clarity, detail and immediacy than the Londonderry LP’s. Vocals and instrumentation are crystal clear and upfront, displaying none of the distance problems associated with an audience source. Bass is somewhat low in the mix but if boosted is clear and undistorted.
There is a little distortion and a lack of pro-separation but that apart it has a hugely enjoyable sound."
I'm guessing that is what you might have heard already?

Ah bummer. It lists it as a soundboard on top, but that is probably the version I'm familiar with.

I saw that, a shame because it is a great show. We do have something even better;

Marky Dread...fucking hell not him again.
At least you got credit this time.
I always give credit where it's due. Whether it's when I'm quoting my sources when I write an essay for an English Class or when I'm posting Clash stuff on YouTube. I've always made sure to give Marky credit when I post his stuff on my channel, his hard work is very much appreciated and I've never tried to take any credit for it on YouTube, I just share it

It's all good mate. No dig at you Implied.
I didn't think so, just wanted to make sure. I didn't want the IMCT mob to come for me and get what my generation likes to call "cancelled"

I've got "Dial a Hitman" on speed dial if you step out of line.
