Was this recorded direct or amped?

Interestingly.............or maybe not, TCotCK (abbreviated justto annoy)was recorded by sending the MKII through a Wem stack and mikingthat(or so we've been told) but when the MKIIs came into us, they had beenmodified to a 1/4" jack output and maybe this was for direct injection butwho knows for certain.  I don't, my mum Betty doesn't and neither does thebloke down the pub with a whippet.
