Notes....
I taped this one....my first and only taping experience....just happened to have a tape deck in my car that night from my own band's practice session. Just ran the mic's as clost to onstage & the PA as possible then to my deck via a 4 channel Radio Shack battery powered mixer....the noise in the Lonely Ave. was intro'd in the PCM stage, and I've since lost the analog masters to the oxidization gods....so this is about as good as it gets...the hiss was because I had no preamp's for the mic's and I was also being careful with the levels....the wow&flutter was my dirty heads, but it still sounds pretty damn good IMHO....

Another Artypants seed....questions, comments imthemarmar@stny.rr.com
