Hi all

Years ago I started a thread about this and now have finally updated it and sorted the sets out properly. About a decade ago, my friends Scott & Kate gave me the recordings of Alpha, the event that Kate's dad put on at Plymouth Warehouse and Dance Academy between 1990-1992. I recorded all the tapes digitally for them.
There are partial recordings of 9 of the 17 nights (one or two in full) and I've joined all the recordings of each night together to upload here for you all. I've tried starting tracklists too.

Thanks to Dave Phatmedia (www.phatmedia.co.uk) for the flyer pics!
