Notes

Good sounding soundboard audio sourced from a Nickelodeon television rebroadcast on July 2, 1983. This audio is quite hissy and the first 50 seconds of Photographic are significantly quieter than the rest of the audio for some reason, but this audio does not have the overpowering and distorted bass of the prior audio source. This concert was the last one with Vince Clarke.

New Life is missing about a minute and I Sometimes Wish I Was Dead is missing the middle instrumental bridge, but this seems to be how the songs were edited for broadcast.

You can find the video this audio is sourced from at Source 2.

Thanks to Mickey's VHS and Betamax Finds for digitizing the source video and also for providing the well-encoded pre-YouTube version publicly via Google Drive.
