On June 23, 1990 Nelson Mandela did a visit to our neck of the woods, and my dad happened to have a tape of the wall-to-wall coverage of Mandela's tour. My dad mainly taped it off WCVB-TV, without commercials btw, yet he did get to record some other feeds off WHDH and 'BZ.

A lawyer smuggled one of Abdullah's songs into the control room, blocked the doors and played it over the loud speakers. Mandela's first sound of music in decades.
