Notes:
First generation cassette from Dean.
Very good sound, louder, fuller and better than what I transferred in 2005
and likely the best we’ll ever hear of this show. Transfer was done with a standalone
and then ripped to the computer via EAC, and converted to FLAC.
The editing consisted only of deleting gaps of silence, splicing and cutting tracks
to make the show as continuous and seamless as possible.
Otherwise this is a raw tape transfer with no equalization, normalization, noise reduction or any other hocus pocus.
All cuts are on the tape. If you had this tape and put it in your tape deck, this is what you’d hear.

EAC logs, shntool results, FLAC Fingerprints and pictures of the cassette with tape cover are included.

Credits:
Thanks so much to Dean for lending me his 1st gen cassette.

Not my recording…nor my photos. I obtained this recording in 1980 from the taper…still…since the previous version was 4th or 5th gen…I think this is a helluvan improvement!

Panamaniac: Nice art Dean! Keepin’ it real only using photos from that particular show

I try…whenever possible! I’d say with the old VH stuff…it’s damn near impossible. But, once in a while, someone throws a bone that sends me in the right direction!

Can anybody help me out with a copy.
