This is likely from the same source as the ciruclating soundboards, but without the apparent Dolby Abuse on the others. Discussing it with the friend I got this from, we think it's no more than 4 or 5 generations. Obvious care was exercised in handing this down the line... probably nothing but Maxells and Nakamichi cassette decks were used. It sounds very nice! Except for:
## --there is a very unfortunate cut in She Belongs to Me at 4:06.56, which lasted for 5.48 seconds. It appears that someone forgot to "pop the top" off their cassette, so I suspect it's not present on the master (wherever that might be).
--there is some "rolling hiss" at the beginning of Miracle. Chalk this one up to the ravages of time on cassettes.
** --segments of Drums and Space are obviously missing. The right channel is missing for a few seconds at the beginning of Space. There is a cut between Space and the intro to The Wheel. I have made no attempts at patching these.
--there is no tuning or crowd noise at end of set 1, beginning of set 2 or before the encore. All the songs are there in full, however.
My hope is that this seed will get people to check their cassette collections. Does anyone have a better version of this?
