Notes:

Rob Eaton and Jeff Silberman's Neumann u87 Dat recording, #10035 (6/11/02), patches additional sections between songs in the AUD to maintain a continuous AUD track in the matrix.

Tuning sections were trimmed.

There's an abrupt cut at the very beginning of Minglewood Blues.

Lamarre's recording adds some deep, resonant bass that is much needed for these particular SBD mixes. There was some pretty extended high end (treble) for these Philly shows that was EQ'd as needed with respect to each source.

The SBD CM or reel generation must have had an old Jerry show on it that was taped over, probably from '74 or'75. The likely Jerry & Merl show is subtly bleeding through in the left channel, but it is only really noticeable during some quiet parts in the recording. I didn't realize this was the actual issue until the Don't Need Love > Drums transition, where you can hear a performance of Tough Mama. This bleeding effect can also be detected at times in the first set as well, mainly as a subtle rumbling sound. It can be heard a little more during Drums/Space and might be a bit distracting during this portion of the show.
