Special thanks to:
–buffalofloyd for Recorder 1
–ravingandrooling for Recorder 2
–ddyte for the “DYI Patch Kit”, which I used for the last part of the show, taking advantage of the work that was already done there

I put this version of this show together for my own edification, but figured some people might want to hear it as well, so here it is. FWIW, I received good feedback on a couple similar PF efforts, namely Hollywood Bowl ’72 (later dubbed “Platinum Crackers”) and Chicago ’77.

What I have here is the superior audience source (Recorder 1) patched with the second recording (Recorder 2) in places where Recorder 1 had cuts – that is,
except for the brief places when both tapers shut off their equipment, mostly between songs. Keep in mind that this is not merely Recorder 1 with the « DYI Patch Kit » at the end, but also with a couple of other patches/blends from Recorder 2 earlier in the show (see below) and some other processing. Specifically, here’s the work I did:

–Meticulously speed-corrected both sources – Recorder 2 was waaay slow, FYI
–**Removed a bit of hiss from both sources – those who are against this practice, beware. There was too much hiss for my taste and that’s why I decided to
make this adjustment, but I know there are many who prefer this not be done. Nevertheless, I encourage you to check out the samples in the torrent (all
under 20 seconds) before you judge. I think it’s a considerable improvement, but that’s just me.
–Blended in roughly 40 seconds of Recorder 2 just after the end of Embryo to compensate for a cut – Recorder 2 was wobbly at this point, making this a
serious challenge
–Blended in Recorder 2 for a 5-10 second cut in CWTAE (see sample)
–Blended in Recorder 2 from “DYI Patch Kit” at 15:14 of Echoes (where Recorder 1 ends) through the end of the show (see sample)

The only music that both recorders missed are a few seconds at start of CWTAE and a few seconds at 24:30 of Echoes; both were also turned off between songs
for the most part, but not much seems to have been missed.
