Pretty good overall; the gems here are Other Voices, Faith and Descent. The first is a loud, bitter rough version with tonnes of jangly guitar. Fantastic...The Cure sound more like Joy Division in this version of Faith than in anything I have yet heard. Bleak, empty, and stripped cannot begin to describe it...A live version of Descent (b-side) is most rare - and sounds awesome here. Overall the recording levels are a little skewed at times, but a decent (amateur) recording. From all appearances this cassette is extremely rare; if anyone recognizes the set list and has more info on the tape's origins, please let me know!
