Though this date apparently circulates as Atlanta, San Francisco is
the correct location (they played Santa Cruz on the 26th).

Evaluating the two sources the prior torrent version clearly had more
frequency range on it (even though the city provided was wrong).  Both
copies are from a source that seems to me to have been range expanded
(ancient pre-digital signal processing that is supposed to enhance the
sound).  This led to a pronounced hiss and somewhat unnatural high end
(that is more present on the torrented version).  The traded cassette
version seemed to have a few more generations in which the hiss was
actually reduced and some of the edge taken off (but unfortunately the
missing audio information extended across the entire range, so it had
less of everything).  It was a fairly close call but the one with more
sound (even if not entirely natural) wins out.  Both sources were very
certainly the same exact performance (identifiable by unique crowd
noises and musical elements).

The other oddity is that both sources (while incomplete) had different
material.  The traded cassette was missing about the first two minutes
of track 05, but did have an additional track at the end (track 08 here).

This torrent should therefore be easy for everyone since it presents the
prior torrented version (with the location corrected) with the additional
song from the other version appended.  You can download this to the same
folder as the prior torrent if you have it handy.

I suspect this might lend itself to a careful remaster (if only to undo
some of the prior processing).  I'm sure there must be a better copy, and
also quite likely more of this show, out there somewhere.  If anyone can
help right this please post or get in touch.
