This is the first show. I have 3 of those performances and they all sound really good. The taper did a fine job capturing the shows with his little Mini Disc recorder. These shows were just all around fun to hear and I'm excited that I was able to obtain copies of these. The only thing I had to do with these were to remove micro gaps at the beginning of each track. The levels were already perfect and balanced. I just checked the set list and titled the tracks. I think I have all of the stage members listed correctly, I'm just not sure on a couple last names. We have 4 of the original Funk Brothers here on stage for these shows. Along with a varity of additional singers and players, including Joan Osborne. Currently only Jack Ashford and Eddie Willis are still alive, but Eddie wasn't involved during these OC Fair shows.
