Remaster Notes:

Taper did a great job capturing this.

My thanks to him/her & to all who shared along the way.

Needed some restoration.

The worst thing was that it was very hissy.

The notes said "master" but it sounds 2nd/3rd in generation.

Did what the recording could handle dynamically.

Via speakers it is great put the headphones on and there is hiss remaining.

Slight digital skip in Youth.

What sounds like a microphone disturbance in Heat, lasts a second.

Not many talkers on this which helps a lot while listening.

Did a few edits/fades and ended up doing a partial re-track.

If you have this then this is worth the upgrade.

Hope you like what you hear.

My basic artwork included.

Remaster Notes:-

Many thanks to Jeff James for originally uploading this show.

Also to blog friend Scott for sending to me, much appreciated.

This was a real find with the snake played.

Wonder if there is a complete gig of this quality anywhere?

If you have such a gem please get in touch if you would kindly share it.

Needed quite a bit of cleaning up & restoring.

Used a little "treatment" nothing major, just brought out what was there.

Think this is the version to listen to.

Much cleaner & focused.

Enjoy...
