notes
- this recording is of historical interest as a document of early audience recordings. it is plausible that this
is the same recording noted by Dick Latvala in his notebooks sent by Steve Hopkins. Check out the audience
yelling out the count down to Big River as noted by Dick!
- mild to moderate distortion (from "hot levels" when recorded?) throughout.  This is unfortunate because
this recording was from a very nice location judging by the "FOB" quality of the sound.
- intermediate copies were stopped between songs to edit "uneventfull Dead air" while preserving some of the
more biting crowd-band point-counter point
- I (Matt Vernon) have not done much fix up work (partial drop outs isolated in one channel, digi-zaps etc..)
on this source.
- presumed tape flips at end of d2t5 (MLBJ) and d3t1 (Stella Blue)
- if you leave off d2t1 (tuning) and put d3t1 (Stella Blue) onto d2, you can just get the whole set 2 continuous jam on one disk
- Portions were released as part of Dick's Picks Volume 14

gd1973-12-02.aud.degen.partial.110782.flac1644

FOB AUD Source: Unknown equipment > MAC taped by Bill Degen.
This transfer is 1st Gen cassette, kindly provided by Tim Friend.

Transfer: Maxell UD90 > Nakamichi CR-5A > Edirol FA-66 > Wavelab >
R8Brain > CD-Wave > TLH > FLAC 1644 tagged. Transfer by Andrew F.

Notes: This partial recording came as filler on the 1st Gen tapes
of Degen & Friend's 12-01-1973. The sound is pretty clear, so it
appears the taper was again seated close to the stage. Eventually,
he was spotted by Sam Cutler, who is heard on the tape yanking the
mic down and stopping the recording.

Tagging notes:
Show information is embedded within the header of each flac file.
It will display on any player capable of directly playing flac files.
If converted to wav during processing, all tags will be stripped,
however audio data will remain unaffected.
If you must transcode to a lossy format, do so directly Flac > Lossy.
Use ffp to validate audio integrity.
Md5 values will change if tagging is altered.
