Taper Notes:
View NotesNotes: - This CD is alternately labeled as "Birmingham Alamaba April 1992" (on the cover) and "The Blue Tomarrow" (as labeled on the disc, complete with typo). More info here: http://www.bluestraveler.net/music/disco/release_display.php?release_id=297 - The setlist on the CD does not match the database setlist; it sounds as though crowd noise was actually dialed up between tracks early on, and then removed (i.e. cut out, not dialed down) between the later tracks. - Original disc was recorded too fast, likely because of incorrect file downsampling. I slowed down the recording by 9% (the difference between 48kHz sample rate and 44.1kHz sample rate) and it sounded much better. Note that this did result in a 75-minute CD ending up as an 81-minute CD. - Dropout in d1t07 from 5:22-5:27, not coincidentally 45 minutes into the recording. Likely a tape flip. - Track 8 cuts off and does not finish. Track 9 almost sounds like it comes from a different source as the audience is quite audible, and there is an obvious cut in the crowd noise after the track ends. Track 11 also has a cut during the crowd noise. - Diginoise abounds in this recording. Pretty ugly and difficult, if not impossible, to remove. I have heard it on a previous rip from a different disc as well as this one. Likely happened in the original transfer to CD.
