From the point of the splice in Rider, all the way through

Deal, there is an oscillating fuzziness that sounds like

tape waver, reminiscent of how some of the water-damaged

Betty tapes sound. It is particularly bad on Deal. Playing

reverts to the previous cleaner sound, and the sound is fine until

about the 6:11 point in GDTRFB. From here on, there is an

oscillating loss of the left channel, again sounding like a

problem with tape wavering as it passes over the record head.



D1t01 (Big River): intermittent static in right channel 2:34-2:45

D1t02 (Sugaree): occasional right channel static, some soundboard problems

D1t07 (Rider): cut/splice @ 1:57; some tape waver and fuzziness in latter half

D1t09(Tennessee Jed)-D2t01 (Deal): intermittent tape waver/oscillation?

D2t07 (Around And Around): dropout @ 3:39

D3t04 (Wharf Rat): discontinuity/splice @ 7:12

D3t08 (GDTRFB)-10 (OMSN): intermittent fadeout of left channel
