The crackling noises at the beginning of the show were caused by a dirty output jack on the Wurlitzer.  Luckily it got better.

I was the monitor engineer for this show.  This tape was made from 2 outputs from the monitor console that were only feeding the recording.  No compressors, noise gates or effects; it's not a perfect mix, but it sounds real good & it's a great show!

Originally shared back in 2007, I did a fresh transfer of this tape to DSD back in November 2020.  When Bill uploaded an audience recording recently I went back & patched in 2 small fills to cover the tape flips in the master.  Thanks to the unknown taper & to Bill for helping to make this recording complete!

Another quarantine-driven project...

Enjoy!!
