Yes, it was MM who did this, and a few other poems at that show; the
setlist was (* tracks = MM poems if I'm recalling the tape correctly):

live at the rainbow theatre, london, england, 18/12/81 (2 tape 60s)

intro, master of the universe, standing at the edge*, motorway city, angels
of life, my armour's killing me*, psi power, coded languages, golden void,
magnu, dust of time, the joker of the universe*, instrumental, psychadelic
warlords, the timeship will not sail*, rocky paths, psychosonia, sonic
attack, shot down in the night, brainstorm, silver machine, master of the
universe, urban guerilla

Allan.
