AUD (shnid=82199):

Taped and transferred (MAC > CD) by Jim Wise.

Transfer: MAC > CD likely Nakamichi Dragon > HHB CDR burner.
CDR > EAC > WavMerge > Soundforge > CD-Wave > TLH > FLAC.

Notes:
- Stealth recording with audience noise, mic shifting, etc.
- WavMerge and CD-Wave used to make new track-ID markers.
- Audible mic bumping and small drop-outs during Mama Tried.
- Tape flip at end of He's Gone (it's the break between D2 & D3).
- Audible static coming from PA system during Drums and Space.
- Tape flip (mended) near the end of The Other One, at 07.23.227.
- Level adjustments at start of Cold Rain, Scarlet, and US Blues.
- THANKS to Jim for the discs!

Notes:

Some light PA static throughout but the matrix helps mask this issue.

SBD dead air/tuning trimmed.

A minuscule repeat "hiccup" in the SBD between Fire On The Mountain and Estimated Prophet was removed.

There was some above average clipping of the waveform in the SBD source, particularly during Cold Rain And Snow. Levels were not increased (or decreased) for the matrix.

AUD tape flips during He's Gone and The Other One were patched with Rip Tompkins' recording (#147222 via Andrew F., with thanks to Richie Stankiewicz, 7/30/19).
