- First ever "Scarlet Begonias > Fire On The Mountain"
- Includes "At A Siding" *

Notes:

- We only have the audience recording up to 18:04 of NFA. I have therefore, patched the rest in from a matrix that originates from MOTB.
- It seems that I made incorrect pitch adjustments when I seeded this, They have now been corrected.  Thanks to Joe B. for letting me know.

Thanks to Joe B. Jones for advice on pitch correction.

Matrix by Hunter Seamons using Final Cut Pro (FLAC > AIFF > Final Cut > Soundtrack > AIFF CD tracking via Audacity > FLAC16 via xACT w/meta-tagging), of shnid's 123285 & 140918.

Taper Notes:

View NotesNotes:

The audience tape had most of the tuning between songs, adding considerable length to the recording. 

Promised Land and Ship Of Fools are AUD only. The last three songs are SBD only. 

AUD only songs were gently EQ'd.

Soundtrack Pro was used to remove an audio flaw in Cassidy and in Fire On The Mountain.

Matrix by Derek McCabe

Taper Notes:

View Notes* PA issues at end of song were smoothed out.

SBD source is missing “Promised Land” and “Ship of Fools”.
Only AUD source is used for these 2 songs.

There is a tape flip on the SBD Source during “Fire on the Mountain”
This is the first Scarlet > Fire (although Scarlet Begonias and
Fire on the Mountain were played separately prior to this classic pairing)
