Editing in Soundforge, I balanced and amplified the channels and performed a 'DC offset correction' (it needed re-aligned).

This is a killer recording!! It's just fantastic. It's hard to believe this hasn't been posted before.

This was sent to me only as Nashville 1985.

As you may or may not know, Son Seals is NOT well documented, even though he toured non-stop for decades.

By listening to the stage announcer speak, it sounds like it's from an outdoor venue.

After doing some research, I found a reference of Son Seals at a Nashville outdoor blues festival.

I'm cautiously labeling this as Vanderbilt University April 13, 1985.

Reference seen here: http://clio.lib.olemiss.edu/cdm/sing...photo/id/12377

This recording possibly comes from this event.

I've shared a couple of Son Seals in the past, he's the real deal blues player.

I'm looking for more Son Seal tapes, so if you have any, please get in touch with me.

The last track cuts off, due to tape side ending.

Thanks goes to in2blues for sending this my way to be shared.
