I got this from an old cassette trading partner of many years from the DC area who passed away years ago. He was not a big jazz fan but got this because he knew the taper, a friend from the area, and he was a musician himself (guitarist) who was into checking other types of music out. -sound on this one is average/OK - a bit distorted on bass and vocals/flat sounding, plus it has the audience eliminated between tunes, so there's very abrupt ends and starts to all the tracks; some taper/mic noise here & there too - otherwise, it sounds very good - I'd give it a "B+" -this must be about the first 90 mins of the show: it runs off the end of side A of cassette and picks up in another tune on beginning of side B, so there's at least 2 partial tunes missing there. It also runs off the end of side B in the middle of the 4th straight unidentified instrumental tune: this would indicate they were in the middle of the set based on other mid-80's shows, which usually went 3 hours or so. None of the standard show ending vocal tunes are there at end, so I think they still had a ways to go. The web does say they played a private gig/party in DC area in last week of December, so this one makes sense date wise, plus my friend lived in the area - good enough for me on ID. -the performance is OK - not absolutely smokin, but solid. -digitalized, re-mastered and seeded by matt23. ; flac fingerprint file generated by Trader's Little Helper ; generated on January 23, 2010, at 10:42:55 SunRa-1987-12-27-tr01.flac:7d5b4dee4971b6f99bcacf85237b3d4c SunRa-1987-12-27-tr02.flac:af131f0e777988ab6d38f34b6cbe7cf5 SunRa-1987-12-27-tr03.flac:80956f3b4bbced6ffd52afed65fe6629 SunRa-1987-12-27-tr04.flac:f246af7e2bf14b3ee41d041fc72502a1 SunRa-1987-12-27-tr05.flac:43f3ff4306af2e87edb1281b301190da SunRa-1987-12-27-tr06.flac:e3e081656ceae97c48119430c747eb8d SunRa-1987-12-27-tr07.flac:c6ecc88f34b7994ec317f27716d82c7c SunRa-1987-12-27-tr08.flac:51c8564a06349f7a13f2b2a527948ca2 SunRa-1987-12-27-tr09.flac:e2200b7a5ce0f6a7aa0c286d002bbef3 SunRa-1987-12-27-tr10.flac:1468347678175fcafb79b535239c180a SunRa-1987-12-27-tr11.flac:a2556f8fbd007b558c54ceac0dcfa9cd SunRa-1987-12-27-tr12.flac:147d3f7c632f0f8bbd762263ab3e7022
