Stereo AUD trade tape

Trade tape > Computer WAV > Cool Edit Pro > TLH v2.4.1 > FLAC 8 > DIME > you
Big thanks to the original taper, and to the trader (peter) who hooked me up with a copy.
I originally mastered this 2009-11-15.
There was a minute of pre-show official music from the Intermission EP (Lights Out).
And there was a minute of true intermission music (Would We Be Alive?) also from the same EP.
That official music was removed for DIME, and I did a fade-in right after each edit.
Beyond that, the only thing I did on the computer was place track marks before each piece.

NOTES

It's stereo, but on this copy it's a bit dodgy for the first few minutes of each tape side / it gets better after that.
There's some mic bumps here & there.
If you can get beyond those first mins segments, it's not too bad at all.

During NARRATION 1, mr Jillette says that Snakefinger's in town & the Rez are hoping to get him to show up this evening.
Sure enough he turns up for a nice solo on Satisfaction.
(All of the time I've had this tape, and I never caught this, d'oh!)

Over the first third of the show, it sounds like there were some emulator disc mishaps.
Some of the sounds don't kick in at the right times, or are behind/ahead of the rest of the music, etc.
Putting such anomalies aside, it's a fine performance.

Happy Home isn't really that long, there's just a lotta clapping at the end.

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).

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