Notes:

The SBD channels were swapped for this matrix.

SBD dead air was trimmed out between songs.

Mix fluctuations in the SBD during Jack Straw. Jerry is low for most of the track.

Two clicks were removed during Tennessee Jed using Soundtrack Pro.

Select tracks were gently EQ'd because of sonic changes, rather than the entire show.

The AUD dropout in Let It Grow was doctored to not be noticeable.

Lamarre's tape brings a nice warm, spacious energy. The Tiger sounds particularly good. I opted to not patch the brief AUD cuts with a different source given his recording's distinctive sound.
