This is a fourth audience source from the second night in Birmingham on the Works tour. Not great quality, so just for completists. The incomplete third source is the best-sounding one.
I removed a few blank spots in the tape and inserted the track breaks. It is otherwise untouched. Thanks to Owen for supplying his second gen tapes for transfer to digital !

I knew there was a reason I'd kept those tapes in the back of the cupboard for over 25 years :-). I'm happy to share them.
Are you sure this is 1 Sept? My brother bought Birmingham bootlegs, I assumed it was the night we were there because in my naivete at the time I didn't know there were multiple shows at the NEC. In particular Brian doesn't say "this is much better than last night!" on these tapes, which he did on the 1st Sept. It should be possibly to tell which night it is based on what Freddie says, I remember a posting from Real Wizard about what he says on the 3 different nights but I can't find it now.

It's definitely the second night. The quote from Brian is there. Track 013, at 5:03.
I've transcribed much of the stage banter from the three nights on my website.
Thanks again for the tapes :-)

I heard the quote from Brian about ten minutes ago playing it back. I've got no idea why I missed it earlier when I listened to the tapes themselves.
And thanks to yourself and David for the transfer. I don't know what you've done but it sounds better than when I played the tapes which were either very muddy with Dolby B or very bright and hissy without.
