A solid audience recording before a small crowd at the Rhinecliff Hotel.  The recording had two issues, however.

First, the stereo image was off center favoring the right side overall, but not consistently.  This was fixed for the most part.  More difficult were periods of static, dropouts and poor signal, mostly in the left channel, ranging from a few seconds to over a minute, all towards the beginning of the tape.  This sounds like a loose patch cable or dirty controls for balancing the mics.  After 30 seconds of A Horse With No Name, the problem comes to the right channel, too, before the right channel stabilizes.  Then these glitches are intermittent.  All have been repaired by copying the clean channel over the dirty one and re-stereoizing the mix.  If listening carefully, you can tell where this work was done, especially with headphones on, and there are still a few tiny glitchy bits during Coloured Rain too small to bother with (YMMV).

Neither the taper nor the mics are known.  The tape was stopped between songs and occasionally the first note of a song is clipped.  The tape flip in I'm Telling Mommy has been cross faded, and you'll only notice it if you know the song and realize that the opening verse is missing.  Set II continued after Magician, which is incomplete, but how much is missing is unknown.

Enjoy!
