notes:
- This is a well balanced OTS capture, you can feel the presence.
- extremely early version of a show mastered on DAT
- not a clue where it came from
- a smile is inevitable

Tagging notes:
Show information is embedded within the header of each flac file.
It will display on any player capable of directly playing flac files.
If converted to wav during processing, all tags will be stripped,
however audio data will remain unaffected. If you must
transcode to a lossy format, do so directly Flac > Lossy.
Use ffp or st5 to validate audio integrity.
Md5 values will change if tagging is altered.
