SOURCE / LINEAGE

Stereo AUD trade tape

Trade tape > Computer WAV > Cool Edit Pro > CDR > EAC v0.99 > TLH v2.4.1 > FLAC 8 > DIME > you
Big thanks to the original taper, and to the trader (I can't remember for this one) who hooked me up with a copy.
I originally mastered this 2000-09-02, but no longer have the original WAVs.
(This one's so old, it predates 80min CDRs & I'd had to master it to 2 discs - tho it fits on 1 80min now.)
I think the only thing I did orignally on the computer was place track marks before each piece.
This source came straight from my 2000 master, extracted via EAC / reports included.
This FLAC fileset comes from the EAC extracts, which did not need SBE corrections.

DIME EDIT - minor stuff
The original source had 2mins of intro music / 30sec of intermission music which was officially released on the Intermission EP / are removed here.
These were "track 1" and "track 10" from my original Disc1, so I simply removed them & renumbered the tracks, and of course renumbered all of the Disc2 tracks too.
(Mind you, the EAC reports don't line up with the track#s here, they're here just to demonstrate clean extractions.)

NOTES

It's stereo, but with fairly limited separation.
(I'd had it listed as mono all these years, but I *do* see the levels cross each other at times.)
Still, it's a fine sounding show for the time.

Nice ranting on this one from mr Jillette.

Likely their first time visiting the birthplace of Dada.
I bet they had some interesting side excursions that day before the show.

Crank it up and ENJOY! it as I have, and share it so others can hear it.

- - - -

Filenames have numbers on the end that are the TIMES (ex. - "...-359" is 3min59sec long).
One track has "EX" in the filename, because exclamation points aren't allowed in filenames.

I mark the start of tracks when the music or count-in begins, not the talking about it before it starts.
