I received this message from Robin:

I've put a note on the bottom of my Music Store page so people can order that way by emailing me.  Wife Mardy and I are going away for a week starting the 4th Sept which was booked sometime ago and with this situation I have had to slow things down a bit!!

It is still available to order, and he just had to slow things down a little due to massive interest in the CDRs.

Please do not upload it here.

So do we know how many times this cassette was recorded over prior to the last show that we'll ever do?

Robin did mention to me in our correspondence that he'd used the same tape each night and so pre-empted the question I was going to ask him which was, were there earlier dates available as well (e.g. 2nd July). :-(

I'm really looking forward to the torrent of this bootleg. Must be great to be the first to liberate this one.

Mine still not received. Odd that people that have received it haven't even commented on what it sounds like, either on here, Bowie Wonderworld or Illustrated DB discography!

asked for digital files as he said he can sell them as an alternative (in an attempt to get to hear the gem quicker) but no reply

I sent Robin an email last night asking about the availability of the Ziggy concert in WAV file format and received the following reply from him this afternoon;  

I will be making the WAVE files available for a small fee probably £5 as soon as I get back from a week away so please keep an eye on the webpage where I'll post the details.

Best wishes
Robin Mayhew

Hello everyone,

Your order for the last ever Ziggy performance has been despatched. Thank you for your patience and what a task :-). The cassette tapes used had been recorded over many times during the tour as the late Ronno asked for a recording each night just in case there were any mishaps during the performances. No one knew this would be the last show ever so no special recording arrangement was made by me. In other words what you hear is just how it was with no mastering or modifications. This is what happened on stage that night and though the poor cassette is a little worn I do hope you enjoy what was heard that momentous night in London in July 1973.

Please - if you ever visit You Tube have a listen to one of my songs which will be a bonus track on my forthcoming album Shallow and Deeper. The song is called Together (A Song for Isobel) sung by Charlotte Howard. If you are a parent or perhaps a grandparent you may enjoy the sentiment. Please spread the word.  Simply search with my name in YouTube and you will find it.

I received the same message, but I expect it will still be a couple of weeks before I can hear it... such is the post from across the pond. ;)

Of course, I think we're really privileged to be able to get this from no less than the sound engineer, and I am happy to wait. It's history reaching out and touching us. :)

Got it today and listening to the opening track now. Didn't know that Mike Garson had done an short opening set based on 4 of Bowie's songs.

Sounds good albeit they're all CDA's. Little disappointed in that originally there was going to be a choice of MP3 or WAV and now it looks like he's charging for the WAV separately. Having said that, we all have to make a living and so if WAV was made available I'd download it.

Woody's drum's are pretty high in the mix, Ronno's guitar doesn't overpower everything and you can hear Trev's bass. I can also pick out Garson's piano during Watch that Man which is great to listen to  as well as the backing singers and horn section. All in all a much better production I think.

I like the overall package Robin put together although the front photo is somewhat blurry as JE showed. No matter, I now have a little bit of history and am very pleased all round with it! :D

To those of you that have bought it, I think that it's worth the wait.

Thanks a lot for the nice description. This makes us "non-UK'ers" even more fired up for it!

One question to MBF and/or SnefUK: What is the total length of the recording?

By the way, there is a great reminiscence about the gig on the 5years page: http://www.5years.com/Retire.htm

with also a link to an interview with Robin Mayhew on it. There is even a sound-link to the spoken intro and the Mike Garson opener for the show (with credit to Robin M.)

What would be the point of recording a gig and then recording over it? There must be some obvious reason that I'm overlooking.

The scenario I imagine is that he didn't feel like lugging a reel-to-reel deck to shows, so he used a consumer audio cassette recorder at the gigs themselves. But he was too poor to buy even a 3-pack of cassettes, so each night he'd being the one cassette home and transfer it to a reel-to-reel, keeping the reel-to-reel version and re-using the one cassette. In which case, he should have reel-to-reel copies of every show of the tour.
