This is NOT quality product... The first two tracks suffer from horrible distortion and the bass is three or four times louder than anything else--Dub Black mebbe? The tracks from Manchester Boardwalk are of significantly lower quality than Deathwish, and many songs are cut, to boot. However, this LP does have one song, "Dead Billy," that was left off the Deathwish--but halfway through it sounds like the taper's mic got halfway unplugged and we're treated to a one-channel, bass heavy rendition of the song. The three tracks from the University of London show are exclusive to this release, but sound like shit and the show is circulating among traders in fairly complete form.

Two reviews of the ULU show are available in the words section.

The BBLP03 stock number that was previously listed in the discography is actually etched into the runout grooves. 252 87 678 appears on the back cover, so I'm giving it priority, despite the fact that BBLP03 is a far more likely stock number.
