The Cure 1982-04-28 Birmingham
M is cut
All Mine is missing

The Cure 1982-05-14 Brielport,Deinze Incomplete
OK sound. Volume fluctuates..

The Hanging Garden is quieter than the rest
Great 10:15, KAA and All Mine..
“demo” of Siamese Twins at the end for some reason..
The Cure 1982-05-17 Metropol, Berlin, Germany
Good sound. All Mine fades out after 01:52...
The Cure 1982-05-20 Düsseldorf
Good sound
Long version of M - extended guitar solo at the end.
Great show.
All Mine is cut at about 5 mins. Real shame as it was really picking up at that point.
The Cure 1982-05-21 Hugenottenhalle Neu-Isenburg (Germany) incomplete
SBD though incomplete
Mix fluctuates in the first few minutes.
Very clear sound, but kinda flat for a soundboard
Siamese Twins cuts in
Play For Today is cut after just over 2 mins
All Mine is very good on this one.
For some reason there’s a version of “Forever” on here that is the All Mine from 01/05/1982.. nice bonus
The Cure 1982-05-22
Poor-Average sound. Bit tinny and rough..
Good frantic versions of songs..
Siamese Twins is cut.
One Hundred Years is cut. but has a cool end.
Play For Today has the guitar dropping out at the beginning. Sounds cool.

The Cure 1982-05-22 Aachen Eurogress [K.M]
Average to Good sound.

Siamese Twins is cut in the middle
