CD1 was just all over the place, it had various degrees of slowed-down-ness that were addressed painstakingly, one song at a time. CD2 seemed for the most part correct or at least in-the-vicinity of close, so I left it alone after much experimentation, except for the last 3 tracks that follow the tape cut in the middle of Mr. Tambourine Man... these were a semi-tone slow and were corrected. Hopefully all of this (going on 6 hours of intense effort) will add up to a much more listenable experience. I also tightened up the tape cuts in Take a City Bride (CD1) and Mr. Tambourine Man/Eight Miles High (CD2) using CD Wave Editor, to make these transitions a wee bit less disjointed... I left these track breaks as they were in the original torrent, though, so each CD still has 15 tracks. Oh yeah, I included the artwork that came with the original torrent as well. Very many thanks to Pink Robert for the original seed... this was not one to take to one's grave, it's just too fantastic to sit in a musty old coffin for eternity. And special thanks to Torrential1 for his invaluable input and encouragement. Hope y'all will enjoy this one as much as I enjoy hearing Clarence (R.I.P. always) whip a sermon of syncopated, B-bent 16th notes on an unsuspecting audience! notes on the refix: When I played it all back after a night's sleep, I saw by the tuning between Take a City Bride and Turn Turn Turn that the last 5 tracks on CD1 were still a bit slow, so I went back and redid it. My apologies for dragging everyone through multiple downloads but the end result seems worth it. |
