WBOTB Project
these were wavs that Tim had backed up from the transfer in 2002. They were SBE fixed (by set), then encoded to flac16 (level 6). The process was repeated with identical results. 
originally tracked for 3 discs, but fits on 2 with a little overburn


Known Flaws:

d1t09  dropout  @ 1:11
  volume raised @ 1:24
  reel splice(?)@ 2:59

d2t01  dropout @  6:26 (2 second dropout)
               @ 14:49 ("Lady in velvet recedes in the night//the transitive nightfall of diamonds")

d2t06 reel change(?) @ 0:32
