Notes:

Digitally Remastered using a custom built, Dual-DAW, nicknamed Bertha, by jashley@deadacated.com.  Completed January 6, 2006.

Frequency analysis revealed a strange upward slope from around 12khz out beyond 22khz. This is why the high end is so bright and tinny sounding.  It's not known what caused this, though, it is not very common to see this on a master reel source. Perhaps the recorder had an extended range setting that was set improperly or possibly recorded with dolby and played back without dolby.  In any case, the curve was corrected, making for a more natural sounding high end.

The mix is all over the place, sometimes perfect and sometimes overdriven and badly distorted. Together with the cuts, somebody must have been a bit too Stoned.  And at the Catholic Center no less...the shame. LOL!
