Notes:

If you're reading this, you should have the track-fixed version.  This splits the originally seeded s5t4 into two pieces: s5t4 & s5t4b -- which I somehow missed dividing.  Thanks to Peter Toluzzi for spotting this issue!
See plf-5-18-8-s5t4-fix-README.txt for more details.

If writing to cds, one way to do it is: s1 on disc 1, s2t1->s3t3 on disc 2,
s3t4->s4t3 on disc 3, s5t0->s5t4 on disc 4, s5t5->s5t7 on disc 5


Sound path: Neumann skm 140s->Sound Devices 722->Resample-1.8+(24/192->16/44.1khz);
minor glitch fixes, fades, etc. w/ cooledit.

s1 featured molo, bob, & phil, later joined by jeff chimenti, steve, & larry

s2 featured duets of larry & jackie.  I did much post-processing on s2 to fix issues;
particularly handclapping.  Sometimes this was done by region- but when there is music,
it is necessary to manually target each handclap (as is the case thru the first half-minute
and later in 'sing me back home', etc.).  This was accomplished with cool edit's 'noise reduction'
clip/pop eliminator.  Further, I normalized the set in two partitions (split @ 7:56), where
I turned up the recording levels on my deck @ the show.

There's a little bit of 'low-end' rumble @ the start of the set where I am adjusting the
mic stand slightly.  Listenting close, you can hear people's feet hit the floor as they're
dancing at some parts.  I could fix these, but they are a relatively minor issue imo.

s3 was the 'standard' phil & friends configuration.  More work on loud clapping done here.

Mississippi Half step is a good breakpoint, merging set 2
Stella Blue is a good breakpoint w/o merging

s4 featured Jackie Green, Tim Bluhm, and for the last song, Tim's wife Nicki.

Clap redux applied at a variety of points where clapping far exceeded the volume
of the music.

s4 started especially soft, so I applied a volume envelope to amplify that section some.

s5 returned to the 'standard' phil & friends configuration.  There were balloon pops galore.
I did balloon pop redux by hand throughout the set to reduce the possibility
of explosive square-wave damage to your speakers.  I got the worst looking ones, softer pops
are throughout.

Happy trails to you, with love from us!
Krista & Phil
