Taper Notes:

View Notes**EARLY & LATE SHOWS** 

note: The master tape suffered from tremendous recording 
level fluctuations, such that it proved less distracting 
for the listener to apply periodic corrections to these 
fluctuations via normalizing in Sound Forge (so much so 
that it merits noting here).  Evidence of this can be 
heard in variations to the noise floor (hiss).  But this 
seemed a lesser evil to the editor (me) than for the 
listener to be running for the volume knob at odd moments 
throughout the recording.

This show is well worth it, regardless of tape issues,
simply because there is very little to nothing else
available for on-line downloading from this great time 
frame in the band's musical history.
