Notes: 
Digging through the closet archives and searching for what to upload next, I offer up the first show I ever taped. After he was an E Streeter and long before he was Silvio or an E Streeter for the second time,  Miami Steve Van Zandt hit the stage in Dallas with his band Little Steven & The Disciples of Soul. I searched the Dime archives and could find no Little Steven torrents so maybe this is the first in a long time, either way this is off the master tape. I can't say I have a lot of memories of this show after 23 years, except it was LOUD, the crowd was very enthusiastic and there was a whole bunch of folks on a farily small stage. 

Quality is excellent for a recording and tape this old, the music has strong up front presence and the master tape has not degraded at all. There is an occassional slight waiver in sound due to me turning the mic slightly (I learned very quickly not to do that), it does not inferfere with the overall quality and is only momentary. I can't say they were the tightest band in the world, but a fun dose of straight ahead Rock & Roll...Enjoy!
