Transferred, Balanced and Tracked by George (Upload 245)

This is the 6th year that Paul Simon had performed for the Save The Montauk Lighthouse Benefit.

This is another brand new recording that’s never been circulated until now.

That being said, the sound quality is less than average. It’s very distant and airy, with a lot of crowd and wind noise.

The actual songs are hard to hear at times. For Dedicated fans only.

reel-to-reel “The NET-FM Show” – great early S&G!

This show is not taken from any previous torrent, it’s from my reel. Upon doing the transfer I noticed that Simon and Garfunkel sounded like Alvin and the Chipmunks. When the show was pitched, it was found to be almost a semitone too high. Pitch was matched to the online program “Virtual Keyboard”. This is truly a special Simon and Garfunkel show from the height of their powers, and shouldn’t be missed if you like the band.

Setlist: Runtime 27m14s:

A Poem On The Underground Wall
For Emily, Wherever I May Find Her
Overs
Introduction of Edward Simon
Anji
Patterns
The Sounds Of Silence
Scarborough Fair
America
Punky’s Dilemma

Known personnel:

Paul Simon
Art Garfunkel
Edward Simon 2nd Guitar
others unknown

Lineage: FM ->?->reel->Sound Forge 6.0 at 24 bit 48Khz ->heavy pitch correction ->60hz notch filter ->downsampling in Sound Forge->FLAC via FLAC frontend, level 6, sectors aligned and verified. Most of the warts in this recording were left in.

Enjoy!

Down But Not Out

Sorry, I’ve not been around much of late, Covid finally got me. So far it has not been too bad of a hit. I mainly feel like I have a really bad cold – stuffy head, lots of coughing, aches, and pains – and I find that I am utterly exhausted all of the time. But it certainly isn’t as bad as it could be.

Me being me I’ve tried to blog a little but sitting up for more than about 20 minutes at a time wears me out. But never fear my music-loving friends, I shall be back. I don’t know when that might be, hopefully, next week, but don’t you dare count me out.

1 Fragment A 16:17 [complete segment as broadcast]
2 Fragment B* 4:58 [partial takes, fragments, that were recorded but not broadcast]

plaz post:

  • balance and stereo image correction
  • click and pop repair
  • each fragment gain normalized separatley to 0 dB

plaz notes:
Fragment A is not tracked: I don’t even know if there’s more than one tune, at least the band never stops. Sounds like Tune in 5 into Zimbabwe.

Note that Fragment B is similar to KOB.de listing for this date.

  1. Tune In 5 fragment
  2. Zimbabwe fragment
