I suppose he was always fighting a lossing battle with how much tape he could carry, mostly he just got a few songs from the artists he liked. In later years when he passed away he left all of his masters to a friend and fellow taper Karl Ryan. Tim met Karl in 1990 and later Tim's cassettes were dubbed from John's masters. Notes: Pitch corrected by reference to the official release. - The tape has degraded over time, particularly during "Pinball Wizzard" > "Fiddle About" There were also numerous small dropouts throughout which I have repaired as best I can. - Tape pauses have been smoothed out. - Some background noise as been removed and I carried-out a little eq - Most tracks are slightly clipped and some are just incomplete. Many thanks to John for taping, Karl for passing this on to Tim and Tim for letting me borrow his tapes. transferred, edited and mastered SIRMick April 2020 shntool ouput: length expanded size cdr WAVE problems fmt ratio filename 5:00.787 173253164 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6461 thewho1970-08-29t01.flac 2:20.560 80962604 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6522 thewho1970-08-29t02.flac 5:28.173 189027884 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6387 thewho1970-08-29t03.flac 2:30.080 86446124 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6466 thewho1970-08-29t04.flac 2:05.120 72069164 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.5559 thewho1970-08-29t05.flac 6:11.067 213734444 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6157 thewho1970-08-29t06.flac 0:36.173 20835884 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6109 thewho1970-08-29t07.flac 2:29.333 86016044 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6210 thewho1970-08-29t08.flac 3:26.933 119193644 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6226 thewho1970-08-29t09.flac 5:09.040 178007084 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6270 thewho1970-08-29t10.flac 2:01.067 69734444 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6217 thewho1970-08-29t11.flac 3:26.907 119178284 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6271 thewho1970-08-29t12.flac 3:32.760 122549804 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6550 thewho1970-08-29t13.flac 2:38.907 91530284 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6402 thewho1970-08-29t14.flac 0:21.520 12395564 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6352 thewho1970-08-29t15.flac 1:16.760 44213804 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6487 thewho1970-08-29t16.flac 0:59.573 34314284 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6387 thewho1970-08-29t17.flac 0:25.827 14876204 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6277 thewho1970-08-29t18.flac 3:34.227 123394604 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6633 thewho1970-08-29t19.flac 1:22.093 47285804 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6710 thewho1970-08-29t20.flac 0:13.467 7756844 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6615 thewho1970-08-29t21.flac 2:32.827 88028204 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6526 thewho1970-08-29t22.flac 1:03.467 36556844 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6188 thewho1970-08-29t23.flac 8:33.787 295941164 B cxx -- ---xx flac 0.6329 thewho1970-08-29t24.flac 67:20.453 2327302176 B 0.6341 (24 files) flac fingerprints: thewho1970-08-29t01.flac:15c6b5d3ae671590868eb893ebd27b0d thewho1970-08-29t02.flac:cea626ba317777e0dc2dc670837666e2 thewho1970-08-29t03.flac:98f5b9da5bceaeb7b7c3b7c2e3bbad73 thewho1970-08-29t04.flac:29ea481efa3c40edd716836fe05e0860 thewho1970-08-29t05.flac:f82d2126fe8572593770b914af9307cb thewho1970-08-29t06.flac:0062e8ea2e083a4f3d84d7d4fb74840d thewho1970-08-29t07.flac:750e2b4a61f31c2dfcf0aa9cf3eddd70 thewho1970-08-29t08.flac:8e58a8827933899e5e5af6e80ebb9d71 thewho1970-08-29t09.flac:a01fce2732b8ac2cf5726803b504a737 thewho1970-08-29t10.flac:1c23bae250f94e654e9df52efdadcb72 thewho1970-08-29t11.flac:b6eaf262094f0b931f620d3e73a9bd78 thewho1970-08-29t12.flac:e47681c4badca321c8790d5c05db2253 thewho1970-08-29t13.flac:1a5138ddb3c3c3204e0914c4494077ca thewho1970-08-29t14.flac:5ce6cccd204699e45d190b8bcf0e54d3 thewho1970-08-29t15.flac:3cd85ac7edaaeeff3699e9f64a7b9d50 thewho1970-08-29t16.flac:a2c89548e54f8c65e4ffc585d3300c06 thewho1970-08-29t17.flac:8e86a7d019fea8918728d6af8ea59599 thewho1970-08-29t18.flac:cf6515c5f6dc75dc12f1c7b887240675 thewho1970-08-29t19.flac:06e928381affde42e1ea6c69b74cfb33 thewho1970-08-29t20.flac:4a144d1016ae24f5e3b85c916ad419b1 thewho1970-08-29t21.flac:f17f81bbf14d3e200f5c80111dc36f66 thewho1970-08-29t22.flac:4bac7a87d2f852832bde1283e71a3a66 thewho1970-08-29t23.flac:681e04d081e62f07ceb8fd886cf27079 thewho1970-08-29t24.flac:43201ea0c73805fedb00a8f0fbdcbfdc |
