The original broadcast was stated as being from December 1985. I compared it to my original broadcast tape (11th May) and the tracks that appeared on my tape that were on the Dime version too were exactly the same versions. Basically the tracks I had on my mono version that didn't appear on the stereo Dime version I have compiled in the correct order (hopefully!), creating a more complete version of the show. Hope you enjoy it. Many Thanks. DO NOT SELL THIS RECORDING UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS IS A FAN'S RECORDING FOR FANS ONLY! SUPPORT THE ARTIST AND ONLY BUY OFFICIAL MUSIC.

CommentBBC Radio 1 Live In Concert
According to http://www.thealarm.com/tourlist.asp?year=1985&filter= The Alarm played Hammersmith four times in 1985, twice in May and twice in December. This show also circulates as Dec 16 or 15, 1985 as it was broadcast under this date on Dime. Two users confirmed it to be May 11, 1985
One user wrote: "May 1985 show at Hammersmith odeon from the absolute tour. The BBC recorded the whole show and broadcast 1 hour in June 85 and then re-edited it and broadcast it again in February 1986. I have both the December shows on Audience tapes and hope one day to seed them along with some of my other Alarm shows."
