Copies from the soundboard reels of these shows have circulated since the '70s, sometimes mislabled "Kaleidoscope Theater, LA," often with dates and sequences mixed up, usually in badly degraded sound quality. This set assembles complete copies of the 11th and the 12th in the best quality circulating. Except for the middle portion of the 11th, sound is excellent throughout; this inferior segment is listenable while leaving definite room for improvement if an upgrade shows up; we haven't been able to find one & don't want to delay further.
Many people gave help on the way to creating this set of CDs. Dave Greenberg did the final masters. Jack Warner was instrumental in providing the difficult composite for the 2nd disc of 12/11/69, which was first mastered by Scott Clugston. RB, KW, JN and HB also provided important assistance. Jim Powell instigated the project and writes these notes. SHN conversion by Jay Gerland.

d1t12 (Hard to Handle) is littered with static (beginning at around 0:45), at least some of which is digital in origin. :(

d1t1 is tuning. There are actually 13 tracks on disc 1. Hard to Handle (d1t13) is also missing from the md5.

I checked my data files and there are only 12 tracks for disc 1. You are correct that d1t01 is a tuning. Mama Tried,T.C. plays Bach is one track, d1t04 and Hard To Handle is d1t12.

Interesting. Look here: http://bt.etree.org/details.php?id=4459&filelist=1#filelist > gd69-12-11.sbd.gerland.10987.sbeok.shnf/gd69-12-11d1t13.shn

Let me try that again: http://bt.etree.org/details.php?id=4459&filelist=1#filelist There's a 13th track:gd69-12-11.sbd.gerland.10987.sbeok.shnf/gd69-12-11d1t13.shn

If you check the md5 for that 13th track you'll notice that it is the same as the one for gd69-12-11.sbd-aud.cotsman.8998.sbeok.shnf

I'm fairly certain that the section in the first set described as "MSR > R > PCM > CD" is not soundboard but is in fact Rion Brady's audience recording. It has the same cuts as the source seeded by Jeff Cotsman but runs faster and is an inferior copy.
