Notes: This is from the same tape as the version that commonly circulates but from a much lower gen source. This source is much cleaner and clearer than any other source I've heard.

The tape I used for this transfer is split over two sides of a 90-minute cassette, and runs too fast. I adjusted this using CEP 2.1 (s1: ratio 104.496, s2: ratio 104.997) and am very happy with the results. A handful of dropouts were repaired using material from the opposite channel. No further processing (e.g. nr, eq) was applied. All FLACs tagged using foobar2000 v0.8.3.

Special thanks to the unknown taper, Andymon for providing this source (as well as the other), the person who's name I've lost who sent me a sample of the known circulating source, and a.b. for being such a great help with correcting the speed.

known faults: r channel becomes muffled for about a minute and a half during t01. Happens again briefly during t04 (possibly the taper temporarily changing position?). 1-second power failure during t05. A few small bits of static occasionally present.
