THE SOUND:
Not bad for an audience recording

Enjoy

THE LINEAGE:

audience > vinyl LP bootleg > cassette (I taped the LP and sold the vinyl years ago) > playback on Nakamichi BX-2 playback with azimuth adjustment done > digitize via Audacity > FLAC 8 via xAct

Not quite a raw transfer.

I took out a few of the nastier pops and clicks
I faded in the first track.

The beginning of track 6 was at the end of side A of the LP.
The remainder of track 6 was on side B.
There was a corresponding fade out and a fade in.
I spliced them together.

No noise reduction or eq was applied.
