Box set

[Sumant Ranji]

Sounds like a full box set of Husker material is coming later this year from Numero. From the Mpls Star Tribune (free registration required):

"The First Avenue concert will be paired with other live recordings from 1985 as an ambitious box set that will be released late in the year, which marks the 40th anniversary of that pivotal year in the group’s short but impactful trajectory."

What you want to vet that the Spin Radio Show will be on it?

Not going to take that bet, but hopefully they have something else...

Off the top of my head these are the known professional-ish 1985 recordings:

28 Feb 1985, Keystone, Palo Alto - recorded by SST

01 March 1985, Stone, San Francisco - SST "The Tour" video

14 May 1985, Camden Palace, London - "Live in London" video

28 Aug 1985, First Avenue, Mpls - Spin radio concert

08 Sept 1985 - Deventner, Netherlands - VPRO broadcast

That's so likely to be included, but happy to be surprised

These are what I know are SB recordings, so likely some of these end up on the box.

I'd hope for something from the May '85 tour, the Huskers were really at their peak then. 

Paul, any info you can share? It sounds like Bob Mehr may be involved - he was behind the Replacements reissues, which were all very well done.
