The music is continuous, no gaps or fades.
For burning to cd split between 09 and 10.
Add fades with your cd burning client.
That's the way I do it.  I'm trying not to
put fades in the files as shared anymore.

- - - - History of 1978-11-11 - - - -


I'm putting this up for several different reasons.
It's a great show and more people should hear it.
And I want people to know the history of it as it's been shared.
And I want everyone to know that somewhere out there, there is a better
version that needs to be tracked down and brought out.

This show has been shared as being from two different locations and dates.
One common share is stated as being from The Tower Theatre, Upper Darby, PA
on 1978-11-10.  One guy even wanted to call it The Spectrum in Philly.
And then it's also purported to be from Boston on 1978-11-11.

There are two different recordings.  Both of the same concert.
Two tapers inside the hall in different locations.
I've spent a lot of time listening to both.  Zeroing in on different parts and doing comparisons.
When things are quiet and someone yells something loud you can hear that on both.
Then you can hear people whispering and that will only be on one.
There are also cuts in different places on the two.
They both have pieces that the other one is missing.
For instance, on this share track 15 the piano solo is missing about 3 minutes or so.  Darn!

The better recording of the two, unfortunately not this one, is really really nice.
I spent awhile thinking it must be a professional recording through the soundboard
or a live matrix.  It's that good.
It wasn't until I found a guy whispering between songs saying "is that thing recording?" that I began
to believe that it's someone making a stealth recording.  He was in some kind of sweet spot.

Anyway that one, the really good one.  I suspect that every time it's been shared that it's lossy.
MP3 in it's ancestry somewhere.
The earliest share I have is from 2005-11-01.  That one is lossy.
Then a more recent share from 2011-01-12 has the same problem, lossy.

The very earliest share that I can find on the 'Bot' dates from 2004-11-30.
It left the tracker on 2005-01-17.  Then I got the next share on 2005-11-01.

That one besides being lossy has sector boundary errors.  It has triple sbe's.
At the start of every track there are three quick gaps in a row.
The largest  gaps were repaired somewhat in a later share.
I'm just mentioning this to show how much the files had been messed with going back to the beginning.

Point of the story so far:  there's a really nice one out there somewhere that hasn't been put through the mp3 wringer.
Maybe it's that very first share from 2004, or maybe it was already fouled by then.

Then there's this recording here.  It's very listenable.
It's been shared 3 different times by the same guy, Thanks glasno!

I grabbed it last November and then spent some time with it.
Somehow it had about 20 minutes or so repeated.
The segment made up of:  In a Silent Way, Waterfall and Teen Town played through twice.
They were all part of track 11 on his share and then repeated on tracks 12 and 13.
So I cleaned that up.  I also smoothed over a number of other transitions, tape flips etc..
Then I went away from it until a few days ago.

That's when I discovered that there really wasn't anything 'stereo' about the recording.
It kind of sounded funny because one channel was alway a few samples behind the other.
But if you move things around you could see that it's mono.

So I dropped one channel and did the rest of my work on just one, duplicating it in the end to have two channels.

I've been listening to this for the last two days and it just can't be denied that this was a special show.
I'm sure they really loved playing in Boston.  A lot of history there for them.

Aha!  You may have noticed that I just took sides.
I'm taking Glasno's word for it.  He seems to know a lot about the circumstances.
Besides some people stating that they were at the show in Pennsylvania,
there doesn't seem to be much evidence that these recordings are from there.

It's too bad that Wayne wasn't in the habit of saying at shows something like, 'It's great to be in Boston!!! Are you ready to rock
are you ready to Party?, Hit it Joe!!'.  He never said anything like that.  I don't know whyâ€¦.

Great show but has some time flaws. Maybe someone can help. It is an AUD

This is my first seed so let me know how I did.

Here is a slightly modified version of a recording seeded a few weeks ago by
Suraho (see link below). Suraho - many thanks for your efforts, and I hope you
appreciate my work. The original version is still being seeded (see link
below).

8:30 was the first jazz record I ever heard (I looked up the names of the band
members in a rock book and found that Zawinul and Shorter played on Bitches
Brew, which led me to Miles's records) so it was great to get a hold of this
recording.

Original seed by Suraho
pbuzby's fixes:

- Fixed SBEs using Trader's Little Helper (there are still cuts between
tracks, but since the music is mostly not affected it didn't seem worth
the trouble to address further)
- Boosted volume and slowed the recording down slightly using Goldwave
- Changed tracking in a few places as Suraho suggested using CDWav
- Retitled last track
- Shaved applause from the start of D2T8 and dead air from the end of
D2T9 to keep disc two under 80 minutes
- Re-encode to FLAC (Level 8 w/sector alignment)

I received this show in a trade some years ago. This recording comes from a nice
master. But obvious
my copy has some analogue generations and there is some hiss present throughout
the show. Maybe
someone out there has a copy of lower generation and is willing to upload his
copy on DIME.
I did the pitch correction (-50 cents) and retracking of the show.

LDB Special Series #273

Out of my 7,000+ shows and radio broadcasts, I have many concerts that were
special for some reasons: the setlist, the
musicians, the venue or unexpected events. These are the ones I'd like to
propose you. Most of these come from my
cassettes collection, so they will be released at a slower pace than my Master
Series! But you won't be disappointed!
I will try to gather the most unusual things I have in my collection and, as
always, your feedback and comments will be my
reward for all the work involved in this project.

DO NOT share this music on mp3, just convert it for your own use. Sharing mp3's
is the right way to make me stop sharing
music here.

This one is from the Mr.Gone tour. Some dates from winter 1979 were then used
for the 8:30 live album so it's interesting to
hear some alternative tracks from the official release. Sounds pretty good (7,5)
the audience is not very disturbing. This is
classic Jaco line-up, for those who love this WR period. Enjoy!

I just checked dime's tracker for currently active (and dead) weather
report torrents, and noticed the shows from Philly just before this, and
the day after in Providence are still on the tracker, but this show has
fallen off, so I'm reseeding this for thanksgiving day, because it's one of
the best jazz concerts I ever saw by one of my favorite jazz bands. the
recording was done on a fairly cheap deck but from a decent seat, and it's
a fine performance. fortunately this was recorded alot closer to the stage
than where I sat for this show. hope anyone who missed it before can get to
hear it this time. it was something to be thankful for, and still is 33
years later. I think there are just a few minutes of overlap at one point
in the recording. samples are in comments. have some holiday heavy weather
that won't leave you stranded out in the cold rain and snow.
happy turkey day from the USA. Ian
