Master Recording: Bo Putnam, SOUNDSupport  EQ/Remastering: Peter Toluzzi

Notes:  This superb soundboard recording was made by Bo Putnam.  There was also an on-stage microphone recording, and various attempts made to matrix the two together, but none seemed to maintain the clarity and detail of Bo's original mix.  However, I felt the bass was muffled, compared to its prominent place in the mix on the night; a little gentle eq has released the bass, sharpened the crispness, and seems to have removed some of the background noise from the original soundboard recording.  I applied gentle boost to certain low-bass frequencies, and a corresponding bump in the mid-highs; I then remixed this version back into the original recording at -10 dB, maintaining the clarity and precision of Bo's recording whilst gently broadening the apparent frequency response.  Enjoy!
