AUD Patches from archive.org: “Nak 300’s > MC > DAT > CDR”

The SBD source appears to have a few casssette generations in it. There
is audible hiss and a minor low-end hum. Nevertheless, the tape is still
very listenable and the show is well worth it…

The SBD was missing the first two songs, so I grabbed those from the AUD
version posted at LMA and used Soundforge to correct the pitch, match
the volume, and add them to this file set. I also added 18 seconds from
the AUD to cover the tape flip in drums, which comes at the end of the
Thunder Machine segment. And, I used Soundforge to make a few small edits
and fades where needed in the SBD source.

I tracked the files for CDR burning onto two 700-MB discs. The track-ID
breaks between Stranger & Scarlet, and Good Lovin’ & Baby Blue, fall
onto silent gaps, so you can rearrange these into a three-disc set that
runs in the correct order.

There’s a disruption in the sound during Jerry’s solo in Peggy-O. It
sounds like the audience ambience mics were briefly turned up too loud.
There’s a small cut at the beginning of Red Rooster, presumably for a
tape flip.

THANKS to Jake Feinberg for locating and sharing these discs! ENJOY !
