  Little John Roberts subbed for Apt. Q258 due to Sipe family emergency.
^ fades in, little if any music missing.
* tape flip between d1t7 & 8.  fade in/out added, little if any music missing
# tape issues from 1:04 of Space till the first 3 seconds of Egos.
  both channels dropped to nearly inaudible levels, coming back in random spots.
  there is a bit more hiss than the rest of the tape, and some general weird spots. 
  gain was raised were needed though I couldn't as much as needed b/c of the hiss.
  I tried to smooth everything out as best I could.
  still a bit rough in a few spots but much better than the original.  not much to worry about IMO.
