Jim Powell's notes:

There are conflicting reports whether the SBD master is on cassettes or
reels, but it sounds like it would have to be reels.
The last 26 seconds of Here Comes Sunshine is missing on our copy of the
SBD and is patched in using an AUD master from a cassette copy of
unknown low generation.
22 seconds in Eyes Of The World are patched from this AUD source also.
The 22-second cut in Eyes looks like a cassette tape flip introduced
when the reels were transcribed to 1st gen cassette. The missing
conclusion of Here Comes Sunshine is harder to account for on this
hypothesis, but there seems a reasonable chance that both missing
segments are intact on the master reels. Meanwhile, this tree.

First set highlights include TLEO, Row Jimmy, GSET and China Cat >
Rider. The Here Comes Sunshine times almost 16 minutes, is the longest
known on circulating tape and probably the best. The Dark Star is the
third longest known at 43:28, and one of the all time best. It is the
fraternal twin of 11/11/73.D

Dave Greenberg did the patches. David Gans supplied DATs of the 1st gen
cassette SBD and Jim Powell instigated the project, supplied the AUD
cassette used to patch the SBD's defects, and wrote this note.
