BobTalk:

  • Thanks everybody! This is one of my anti-relion songs. (before Gotta Serve Somebody).
  • This is a big hit for me back in the States. Sold about 9 million! It’s all about fishing.
    (before Wiggle Wiggle).
  • Oh, you know, they’re digging up Presidents again. They just dug up another President now.
    So in (?) all these years you can still dig up a body. This about the first song anybody ever
    dug up a body. And I found that everything they said about the body was true.
    That’s somebody, everybody. (before Barbara Allen).
  • Thanks everybody. It’s time for me to step on my pedal now! (before Man In The Long Black Coat).
  • Thanks everybody! That’s all! You clap right along! Here’s a song about everything’s going
    to fall apart ???? Clapton song ???? (before Everything Is Broken).

excellent sound; upront brief talking d1t8, background talking d1t9, d1t10, d2t3;

(a bittorrent from 03/08 by jtemp is same recording with similar wav and spectral
view on d1t3 but tracks cut differently;
mis-described as the LB number with filenames like 910623_Hamburg_disc1-Track03.flac);

(a bittorrent from 09/10 is probably same as 03/08 torrent and has a little lower
levels so has less clipping but with same digital flaws plus more like drops at d1t8 1:06,
and d1t10 1:41; mis-described as “LB-1849, Holy Grail” with filenames like

“disc1\910623_Hamburg_disc1-Track01.flac”; xref-00575)

left channel drop with small pop d1t3 2:15 to 2:21, square wav static d1t5 0:23,

I did not harm the sound of the recordings in any way other than performing the necessary edits and crossfades
between the two source recordings.
