Security was very difficult at this show and they were on the lookout for tapers. The tough security situation led to various problems with this tape (see below), plus you get to hear a whole lot of audience chatter etc. During the acoustic set, in which the audience sat down, the mic was placed on the armrest between seats. This placement resulted in major distortion during the applause between songs. Soundforge was used to cut down the levels during the distorted parts, and to make the tape sound less jarring for those passages. During the electric set when the audience stood up, the mic was hand-held at approx chest-level. Soundforge was not used on the electric set, which is presented exactly as recorded, audience and all. CDWave was used for tracking. Enjoy this show - we miss you Jerry. (1) Most of "Blue Yodel" is missing; cuts in at the last solo before the final chorus. (2) Most of "Cats" is missing; cuts in at the last verse after Jerry's solo. (3) The tape was flipped after "Think". The deck was hidden under a coat, and the mic-input volume knob was accidentally turned up. Consequently, the remainder of the show (last four songs) has a lot more gain. This results in some barely noticeable distortion in a few spots. When transferring from the master, the input gain to CD was lowered to account for this, and to make it generally match side-A of the electric set tape. (4) Tape cuts at the very last note. |
