  • – To cover the track split at a tape flip here, track 15 was patched in from another tape of this show
    Some microphone break-up in places, but not too intrusive
    This show is presented in glorious mono.

Recording lineage

Unknown recorder, probably Panasonic -> cassette(0) -> copied to Cassette(1)

Playback / Encoding lineage

Technics Cassette Deck -> Alesis Masterlink @ 44.1kHz, 16-bit (track splits, level increase, and patch in track 15)
-> CDR -> EAC to .wav -> TLH to .flac
TLH sez no need to fix SBEs – files already sector-aligned
