Dime post id#96128 - now dead - thanks to the original seeder !!

Also, recent Dime re-seed by 'troward' - thanks !!

Also Dime (dead) id# 97672, incorrectly labelled Village Gate 1971, was a poorer quality
version of this set, with slightly shorter tracks.

Changes made (Nero 7):
Noise print NR - lowest effective setting, so music not affected
Cross-mixed tr01 & 02 (79:21), tr03 (81:19)
Reduced left channel by 15-20% to centre stereo image
Fixed many balance swings & drop-outs within tracks - 100+ on tr01 alone !
Applied EQ, bass +1dB (all tracks) and treble +6dB (tr01-3) +3dB (tr04-5)

Quality: Worth an A now
--------------------------

Probably the only Lifetime post of approaching decent quality, it has brushed up rather
well (details above). There is still a fair bit of tape flutter which I couldn't fix,
but it is a super listen now...

...Enjoy !!
