Lineage:
Torrent Download>CDR>Foobar2000 single WAV rip>Adobe Audition (pitch correction)>CD Wave track edits>FLAC

Notes:

"The pitch is approximately 1 SEMITONE FLAT (100 CENTS)"
see 'goody' on torrent: http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=165921

Goody concluded that the source recording was running slow, causing the pitch to be very flat. The single WAV file for the complete recording was opened in Adobe Audition (as was Cool Edit Pro), Pitch Bender applied, and the whole recording corrected for one semitone flat. This also speeded-up the recording and reduced its time from 77:26 minutes to 73:06 minutes. The pitch corrected WAV file was re-tracked in CD Wave and FLAC'd.

Track 03
There is a break 08:07 minutes into this track, which is on the source recording.

Track 04
This track is cut short, which is on the source recording, and goody assures me that it does move from 'Come On, Come Over' into 'Barbary Coast' before it was brutally cut short.

Track 05
I had originally included this as a longer medley with track 04 on my original torrent, but now agree with goody that it should be separate. 'Dr. Honoris Causa' has the germ of 'Birdland' at the start and end of this track.

Track 08
This track is also cut short on the source recording, but is the 'longer' available version.

Track times:
01 08:57
02 10:27
03 13:35
04 04:41
05 10:17
06 08:54
07 09:02
08 07:12

I will also ask the Dime moderators to remove the incorrectly pitched torrent at: http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=165921
but you can still read the comments.
