Anyone know how this Pickwick demo of "Heroin" got onto YouTube?:

Are others from that set available?

Wasn't it played at one of Lou's memorial services, i think Hal Willner was there/something to do with it from memory.

This sounds much too clear to be an audience recording.

Hi Sheila, I compared the Youtube source you posted and the soundtrack from the memorial service i saved in 2013 and they are the same. The file I had said "...as played by Hal Willner at Reed memorial service, Apollo Theater, 12-16-13"

The memorial is still up on youtube, you can hear it here (I've set the link to start at Heroin) https://youtu.be/a9Wie9U7ggM?t=27m56s

The intro banter is cut out.
