HW: "Weird Tapes"

[Kevin Sommers]

I believe they were on the "1979 - 1989  Concerts - Festivals - Private
Parties" video available from the band a few years ago (and advertised on
page 20 of 'Hawkfan #18').  The songs on it are "Battle Seq Elric" and
"Choose Your Mask," and are similar to, but different from, the versions on
the Jettisoundz video.
