Tech Notes:

Known flaws:
1. Static during “(introduction)” and start of “Phase Dance”.
2. Missing track marker (d1t07 at about 9:34) for “Jaco”.

Recording notes:
WLIR/WRVR broadcast, pre FM source.

This recording is directly from the broadcast truck’s soundboard,
not the house board.

The original Maxell XL-2 dolby cassette master was recorded on a
Nakamichi 550 and has been transfered [in 2002-09] to cd via a
calibrated Nakamichi CR7a through an SBM1 to a Lynx card.
Edited and mastered in SoundForge.

  1. Thanks a million. Have been playing the show for the last couple of days. Fabulous. Sound quality is very good if not exceptionnal and it has songs available who are not on official releases.

  2. Comments from a deleted repost:
