You have some stuff around the caps - ie: a large patch of liquid that is now dry. This may be leaking fluid.
The sound clip suggests to me that the amp is running out of power on bassy sections (otherwise it sounds quite good). I can only see this as being a process of elimination. The powersupply caps may be all dried out and there is no tolerance in the amp for power when the amp needs it. I think replace those 2 large caps and see if the distortion remains.
Its a bit confusing as their also appears to be some HF crackling in there - which could illustrate small-signal tranny failure - like gort69 refers to above.
