-Set one was incomplete with only 3 of 9 tunes and level fluctuations
-Set Two contains the first version of Built to Last and this source is the first circulating copy of this concert
-The levels and vocals were very off in this recording and were mastered to a listenable point.
-DrumZ had a pause and for ease of listening I blended them to "sound seamless".  Music is missing.
-Hopefully a more pristine copy will surface.
-Noise Reduction would deteriorate the fragile vocals, therefore none was used.  Hiss is present.
