OldNeumanntapr Notes: (2023)
This is a show that has been under wraps since its inception. I was able to plug in without anyone at the club’s knowledge, but I was told by my contact NOT to let this recording out… until Lindley had died. So I have honored that promise these last 17 years.

I just now received permission to share this so please enjoy and love this for what it is, a bit of lightening in a bottle from a long ago time. Please don’t sell this! Share with kind, Lindley-loving fans.

Best version of Cat Food Sandwiches I’ve EVER heard! about 30 minutes! Unreal recording from a small club. The beginning and ending of the show are clipped, unfortunately. This was done one a single 124 minute professional tape.

It was with great sadness that I learned early this afternoon of Mr. Dave’s passing. I had heard that he had been in frail health for a while and that he had suffered Long Covid, but I don’t know if that is what lead to his death.

I was EXTREMELY Lucky to have seen and recorded him as many times as I did. The only show I EVER got thrown out of for taping was the David Lindley / Hani Naser show at Loco Ranchero in San Luis Obispo, CA in 1993. I was using my friend Gene’s Sony D10 DAT and the internal NiCad battery wouldn’t hold a charge so I was trying to record with the AC power cord plugged into the wall, near the plasma light. (The walls were painted black and I knew that there was an electrical outlet there for the light.)
I had the D10 with two Nakamichi CM 300s with CP1 cardioid capsules in a backpack, aimed at the left side speakers. Loco Ranchero (was) a tiny club , up on the hill overlooking highway 101, where KSBY TV channel 6 is now.

Little Jack, a dwarf soundman who I helped with sound at Blues shows, was the one to out me. He was drunk and spoke in a loud voice about me taping and Lindley’s road manager heard and demanded the tape. I refused to give it because (at the time) DAT blanks were $10 each locally and they threatened to call the cops. ‘Call ’em’, I said and walked out.

It was no net loss because I only paid for the early set and at the set break I went to the men’s room and hid in the stall, so I only tried recording the second set. 😉
I wish I had that recording. It was a great show.

I will always miss hearing his playing, and it cracked me up when he would ‘channel’ Jimmy Stewart!

I have 152 Lindley recordings and hope for more. 🙂

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
This was my first time seeing/recording a show at the Maverick Saloon. It’s a very small room. I counted ten rows of folding chairs, with 12 chairs per row. There was a center aisle up the middle. I think there were some additional folding chairs in the back, but it was still a small crowd. I’ve heard this venue compared in size to McCabe’s Guitar Shop in Santa Monica, CA.

Lindley put on a great show, and the crowd for the most part was really quiet and polite. I had my doubts, seeing how it was going to be at a saloon and all. The venue records and videotapes all the performers and offers the DVDs for sale at a later date. I noticed that they were selling past shows when I left, though Lindley didn’t seem to have anything of his at the merch table.

I got there early when doors opened and snagged a chair in the 5th row, just right of center. This was also my first time using a Sony PCM-M10 (Thanks Randy). It was a LOT smaller than my Tascam DR100mkII that recently broke down. However, when I was examining the various menus on the recorder before the show I must have accidentally changed the recording menu because the recording came out at 16 bit 48 khz. I THOUGHT I was setting it to 24 bit, but it must have gotten changed because of my clumsy thumbs. I preset the levels before I went in and left the KM-100 -10db pads turned off. (I have to use the -10db pads with the Beyer for loud electric shows because it will distort when it’s loud.) The PA tonight was very soft and I didn’t even need my ear plugs. I couldn’t check levels hardly at all. The Saloon staff gave a small announcement at the beginning of future shows, etc. I was getting levels but didn’t know if they would be too high, too low, etc. I guess I should have set the light so that it was always on. I didn’t know how to turn the light on once it went off and didn’t want to press a wrong button and screw up the recording. As it was, the applause was louder than the music. I thought that is sounded good but the PA was a bit quieter than I would have expected.

Lindley played two sets, and had to work on the electronics of one of his guitar’s because he thought it was misbehaving. As it was it turned out to be his IEMs that were having intermittent spastic electronic hiccups.

I always enjoy hearing Frizz Fuller tunes like ‘Rag Bag’ and ‘Ain’t No Way. I was happy to hear him do both ‘Mercury Blues’ and Bon Temps Rouler’, as well as his reworked version of ‘Pretty Polly’ and ‘Meat Grinder Blues’. He told a lot of his usual witty and crazy stories, but also told one I’d never heard before of the time he had a chance accidental meeting of Charles Manson in Haight Ashbury in the attic of the Straight Theater in the late 60s when he was traveling with Kaleidoscope. He said one of his friends informed him years later to the identity of the person he met that night and he said it really creeped him out.

Mr. Dave played a sanitized version of ‘Meat Grinder Blues’ with no reference to the giant meat grinder that looks like a cement mixer, and no story to go along with the song. He focused instead on food monopolies like Monsanto and included a reference to ‘pee pee colored golden rice’. Lindley always incorporates a double redundancy in amplifying his instruments, with both a cable-fed direct box and also a close-miked Shure SM 57 microphone. For the ‘Meat Grinder Blues’ encore he repositioned the SM 57 about an inch away from the strings of one of the Weissenborn guitars and in the process of his frantic playing he banged the guitar stings into the microphone a couple of times. So, there are some ‘mike bumps’ on the recording but I was not responsible, because they were not on my microphones.

Thanks as always to Dennis Orr for the awesome job he does in post production. It makes my job a lot easier. He was able to raise the level of the music and reign in the crowd noise. I think it sounds splendid!

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
This was the last time, to date, that David Lindley has played SLO Brew. Sadly, the attendance at this show wasn’t good, with less than half capacity. As usual, Mr. Dave played a wicked slide and told some very amusing stories. Sometimes I think it’s Lindley’s stories that drive me to collect so many of his show recordings. This was the show where I met the taper known as DATCC, who sat next to me. So, there is also his source for this show (Sonic Studios DSP-6Ps >Sony TCD-D7), though I don’t know if he’s circulated it yet.

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
This was a stealth show that I recorded with my Neumann KM-184s, that I ended up selling soon after to purchase the Neumann SKM-140 set with active cables. It was just too difficult to stealth record with the KM-184s and their bulky XLR cables. In those days I had really long hair, which I would wear down to cover the microphones. I ran the KM-184s on a T-Bar that I held in front of my head. I remember this show well. I always enjoyed David Lindley’s stories between songs. This was also the show that I saw Jackson Browne outside in the courtyard before the show. I didn’t want Jackson to see the recording gear that I had so I walked around him on my way into the theatre.

(Feb. 2016 ONT Notes- This is a complete remaster, starting with a fresh digital transfer of the master DAT by Terry Watts, and following with additional post processing by Dennis Orr. Thanks to both of you! I think it sounds better than the previous version. This version has no CD generation, so split into discs as you see fit.)

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
This was the last time that I was able to record David Lindley at the old Cuesta College Auditorium, as it closed down in the mid 2000s. The building is located on the old Cuesta campus which was formally a part of the CA National Guard Camp San Luis Obispo complex. The auditorium, which is a ‘shoebox’ type with the stage at the narrow end, was constructed during WWII and is an unreinforced wood frame building. It was deemed not worthy for earthquake retrofitting, so it has been slowly sinking into decay for the past 10 years or so. The auditorium looked like hell, with pealing paint and a leaky roof, but has excellent acoustics. The performers who played there really enjoyed the sound inside the building.

This is a remastered version of my DAT master, done in July of 2015. The master had loud crowd noise (applause) between songs and detracted from the listening enjoyment of the recording. I believe that I had someone upload the previous version before to another tracker. I think this remaster sounds much better, now that Dennis worked his magic on it. The music sounds much more prominent and the crowd applause, while still present, is not overpowering. Thanks also to Terry Watts for digitally transferring my DAT master, as my DAT recorders have all given up the ghost and are unusable.

I last recorded David and Wally at the Cuesta Auditorium in 1998, with Neumann KM-184 cardioid microphones. The SKM-140s have the same capsules as the KM-184s but offer the use of active cables which make recording covertly so much easier! (AK-40 capsules + LC3 active cables + KM-100 amplifier stages = SKM-140s)

Mr. Dave and Wally always put on a good show and this was no exception. Lindley’s stories are always very entertaining. Sometimes I think I collect his shows, not only to her his slide playing, but also for his witty and imaginative stories.

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
My second attempt at stealth with the Neumann KM-184’s, the first being two nights previously at the Lobero Theatre in Santa Barbara. I loved the acoustics of the old Cuesta Auditorium. I was the first person to but tickets for this show, and I wanted 2nd row center, so that the first row of people would help hide the microphones from view. Mr. Dave and Wally both talked a lot about the previous night’s show in Santa Cruz when they had to suffer through a power failure and play by candle light without the benefit of a PA. As usual, this show has lots of good music and good stories. (The old Cuesta Auditorium, on the old campus of the CA National Guard army base, has been shut down since the mid 2000s because it was not deemed worthy to retro fit to California earthquake standards. It had peeling paint, a leaky roof, looked like hell but had awesome acoustics.)

Feb. 2016 ONT Notes- This is a complete remaster, starting with a fresh digital transfer of the master DAT by Terry Watts. Dennis Orr initially did some post processing on this one, but there was some kind of anomaly in the processing that we couldn’t iron out, which sounded like a channel imbalance going on, so I chose to work on the transfer that I got from Terry. Thanks for your efforts Dennis. I think this remaster still sounds better than the previous version. This version has no CD generation, so split into discs as you see fit.)

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
This was the second to last time that Mr. Dave played SLO Brew. He was back in November of 2012 but hasn’t played since, and the club is scheduled to close soon so I don’t know if he will be return. Sadly, Lindley’s show’s at SLO Brew haven’t sold well. The crowd at last one, in Nov. ’12, was less than half capacity. I have always loved the Middle Eastern sound of his music, his slide playing, and of course his very witty and imaginative stories.

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
I believe that this was the first time I’d recorded David Lindley since the Cuesta College show with Wally Ingram in 2001. I was having trouble finding new DAT blanks at the time, and I was forced to use a one-pass tape that looked to be in pretty good shape. Unfortunately, the recording had little digital errors sprinkled throughout and I was not happy and considered this show a total loss. However, My friend Mike was able to do some amazing things in post production to repair the damage. His full notes are listed below, but to put it simply; IT IS A HUGE IMPROVEMENT!!! My hat is definitely off to his monumental efforts. This was probably the last time that I saw Lindley play the Turkish Saz. I’m not sure why he hasn’t taken the Saz on the road recently, because he is such a brilliant player. My friends Dave, Brian and Lorna were with me at this show and I’m certain that they will also be happy with the improvements in sound on this new version. (It’s not really a remaster, because I’ve never sent this show out before because of the previous errors.) Lindley only played SLO Brew two additional times after this show before the building closed for demolition.

Mike Notes-
Did remove most all of the digi-noise one way or the other.
I used copy and paste on a lot of this
Similar to my clap removal method which is so simple.
Look for the brightest vertical lines and then copy something next to it and paste it over the bright spot.
Not necessarily do you copy the entire frequency band (stay away from the bottom/low frequencies). If a sound stutters then try copying less or from somewhere else. You might hear a little of that but I tried to be careful.

Have used a lot of different methods and this has now become one of my favorite. so easy to “see” noises in this frequency vs time format.
Included a screen shot for you to see what I am talking about.
Low frequencies are on the bottom and this goes up to 22 KHz at the top of the display. Most of the crackling digi-noise was in that upper frequency area (8-22KHz). Used the repair (replace or attenuate) tool on that sound.

Tried multiple tricks on most of these noises and used the one that came out best each time. Being able to select an area (a box around the noise) the area of noise was repaired leaving most of the rest of the signal alone.

So little overall degradation. About 250 repairs +/- in the first 45 minutes.
A couple places that were too bad to repair were just sniped out (shhh don’t tell the taper) Listen for the edits and you should not even be able to find them even comparing side by side. Makes it listenable and otherwise it was awful.

Started at about 7AM and it is now 3:30PM and it is time for a nap.
Will start work on the second half tomorrow. I have been digging this show all day. An American classic who only gets better with age (more eccentric?)

Mike

Additional Notes-

Laughed pretty hard during the “boobs” song as I am over weight and relate to everything Dave said.

Additional lineage would be: iZotope RX4 advanced & Adobe Audition 3.0 (clean up) Made 4 passes from beginning to end looking for noises to remove but it is quite possible I missed something.

Came up with a fix for the few seconds during the vocal part in the second song. The same phrase was repeated elsewhere in the song.
Used one of those repeated lines for a 2 second patch to cover up the “noisy” one. Nothing quite matched up so I only used the signal from 5KHz up for the patch. Synced with the original low frequencies so it didn’t sound “off”.
Imagine laying a photo of a picket fence onto another photo of a picket fence and lining it up. Patch can be found between 3:52-3:54.
You can hear it if you listen closely but when you’re playing the concert it goes by quickly and it hides the bad noise pretty well. Creative editing.

No other way that I knew of to fix these long digi-noises.
The other 2 bad spots were instrumental and so just “snipped out” on the beat so they are invisible (I hope). Were you able to find the 2 splices, I can’t anymore and I made them.

You will be glad to know that I got rid of your enthusiastic neighbors clapping. In fact I modified some loud whistles and loud screams by spot attenuating them so they are not so disturbing. Some coughing and a lot of whispering from the neighbors was also reduced. Clunks and tics were removed to be sure they were not part of that digi noise. Was probably you bumping your microphones or the cables once in a while. Pretty much did the exact same thing I do with all of my recordings.

Spliced the 2 halves together and removed the overlap. So the concert is missing a couple seconds but it is so minimal as not worth mentioning.
Nice project for me as I had to stretch a little to figure out how to do some of the repairs.

Bet this was a big disappointment at the time.
Not now.

Enjoy,
Mike
