Tech Notes Missing El Paso.

Notes: Betty Board, 7.5 ips, 1/2 track reels

According to Dougal Donaldson's entry in the Taper's Compendium on this date, the original reels were recorded in mono.

The show up through Sugaree did not use the DBX Type 1 noise reduction, therefore it did not need to be decoded. Let It Grow thru the end of the show did.

The bad connection in the equipment can be heard buzzing towards the end of Estimated. Static and some distortion occur following this and He's Gone.

Dropout in Ramble On Rose @ 5:31

A fragment of El Paso exists but was left off of this transcription.

"Dead air" after Deal has been edited out, as has similar material after Samson in order to fit the show onto 2 discs. Crowd noise has been cross-faded between Let It Grow & Franklin's as well as Ship Of Fools into Estimated, again to squeeze the show onto 2 discs.
