Preamp battery died for 1:41 during second set (Track 11). After a battery change, the audience portion resumed. 

In addition, the DAT tapes ran out just before the end of the show. The audience tape ended first, but the soundboard recording continued for a few seconds. I replaced the audience tape, but in the meantime the soundboard tape ran out. There is a gap of about 1 second, where nothing was recorded (about 5:04 into the last song). 

Remix notes:
In February 2011, I re-mixed the recording, primarily to improve the mix where the audience source drops out (see note above) about 17:15 into Track 11 (during the drum solo). While the segue between sources is still noticeable, I believe it's better. Similarly, the segue between sources in the last track (when the tapes ran out) was improved. In addition, I made a slight time-alignment change just prior to Track 6, and I slightly changed the balance of the audience portion throughout.

Recorded and mixed by Richard Russell
