Gen 4 SBD Cassettes > SonyTC-W320 > Marantz 510 > CD > EAC > CD Wave Editor > Flac level 8

Not much is known about the 2.5 source cassette tapes used to create this transfer.
There were just three things noted on the jewel cases I duped my copies from.
All that was noted was "gen 3 SBD" & just after the Violia Lee it said FM.
I take that to mean the Violia Lee, (and possibly what follows), was from an FM broadcast.
It gets even more confusing because to my ears, some of the acoustic set sounds
like an audience recording but some tracks sound like a SBD. (?)
It should also be told there are two versions of the Cold Rain & Snow on the tapes.
One was cut towards the very end, one was complete & said "different source". After listening,
I decided to include both hoping this would be re-mastered & corrected. The complete version is out of pitch & runs slow.

This is not the DP.
I got these tapes from an old deadhead friend back in the mid - late 70's, either 77 or 78 & he had
them LONG before that. There's nothing else I can add here, this is all I know about the tapes.
(Maxell UDXL II 90 minute @ 2.5 tapes)
There was an announcer at the very end after We Bid You Goodnite talking about the National
Paranoid Association. "For those of you out there hiding under couches & in dark places,
we love you, we need you, please donate. We don't want to know who you are or where you are, please come out".
There was more but it was cut & I left it out, only noted here in case someone knows more about this recording.

The only editing performed was to remove some silent between song gaps where it sounded like the taper had
stopped the deck & re-started it to continue recording. Just a few short seconds of silence was removed in
about 6 places.
The tracking could be better, the whole thing needs some better editing & mastering applied.
This is very raw C > CD > EAC > Flac. Each side of a tape was recorded to a single CDR, warts and all,
then the silent gaps were romoved using CD Wave Editor. No other editing was done.

If you burn to CD, this isn't tracked to fit exactly so you will have to divide it up best you can.
If you care to use 5 CD's, your good just as the files read. (I think ?)

Many thanks to my friend Jim Collison for providing the cassettes all those years ago, thanks bub.
