Excellent digital radio broadcast. This was recorded during the tour to promote the band's third album 'Touched by Jesus' and the set-list majors on songs from that release. I have spliced in 'Martha's Harbour' and 'It's All Too Much' from the much shorter version previously posted here. As the source of that earlier post was an FM radio broadcast, there is a slight difference in sound quality, but I felt it was better to have a more complete version with the songs in the correct place in the running order.

I've found a new host for files, so I'm going to give them a try. Obviously getting anywhere near having all the original files uploaded will take a very long time, but I'll see how the new hosting service pans out over the next couple of months and see if it's worth re-uploading everything.
The first file I've uploaded is the last one from when the blog was active (Paul Weller, London, 13 March 2012). There's a new link in the original post.
I've also had to take the decision to use generic filenames and password-protect the files to stop any nosy parkers taking a look and deciding they're illegal.
The password is simply "bigboxoftapes" (without the quotation marks, of course).
Let me know through the comments if the download worked for you, and if the password was active.
