Comments:
Great sounding closeup FOB master audience cassette with minimal closeup crowd intrusiveness.  Thanks to Bill for borrowing me his masters.

Flaws:
d1t07 (Tennesee Jed) completely missing - spliced from CM's SBD source.
d3t04 (Not Fade Away) - 7 second splice from SBD source from 06:15-06:22.
