Taper Notes:

View NotesTagging notes:
Show information is embedded within the header of each flac file. 
It will display on any player capable of directly playing flac 
files. If converted to wav during processing, all tags will be 
stripped, however audio data will remain unaffected. If you must 
transcode to a lossy format, do so directly Flac > Lossy.
Use ffp to validate audio integrity.
Md5 values will change if tagging is altered.

Taper Notes:

View NotesNotes: Seastones and the beginning of the jam was patched using SHNID 90145. This show is a mono recording and unfortunatley all that is available as an aud source for this date. The sound quality is average to say the least. This recording is for completists only and was done to add an aud source into the db.
