Taper Notes:

View Notes- this source differs from the most recent previously circulating copy (http://db.etree.org/shninfo_detail.php?shnid=5216) in that
a). Casey Jones is not clipped
b). The Yellow Dog Story which appears before Dark Star is not on this tape. The transition from the end of Easy Wind to the start of Dark Star on this tape is continuous.  This would suggest that the Yellow Dog Story on the other source may not be from this date.
c). The version of Lovelight on this source is complete (~24 minutes) except for a brief gap.  The previous source cut after ~ 9 minutes

Taper Notes:

View NotesApproximately 14 minutes at the end of "Turn On Your Lovelight" has been spliced in from the Source 2 version above because it was cut on the unedited (Source 1) version. There was a rough cut at about the place where the unedited source cut, so the edited (but known lineage) source was used from that point to the end. A seamless splice was created by removing a few seconds, however if you prefer the original spliced version it has also been properly tuned and is provided here as well in a 'bonus' folder, so named.

Remastering notes:
(grner1): Pro Tools (normalization and seamless fixes - no EQ or noise reduction) > Wav files >
(goody): Audition (pitch-adjustments of various amounts; Lovelight splice and retracking) >
