D4T1 (Big River) - there is garbled sound/low attentuation that runs 5:06:937 - 5:48:238, 5:55:155 - 6:01:700 and 6:24:787 - 6:33:680 end of track
Thanks Ken Adelman for bringing this up. I have a fix and Ken has one. Along with the original, I will be posting both. Use whatever one you want.
D2T03 (Good Lovin') - there is a noticeable dropout 2:47:02 - 2:47:04. Again, I have a fix and will be posting both.
D3T05 (A&A) - big cut or really bad splice at 2:58:09. Too hopeless to fix. You're on your own.


And now from the original poster:

Ahhhhh. Normal Illinois. Long one of my favorite shows; for some unknown reason it doesn't circulate much. This show came to me on a DBX encoded reel in 1979.
I was told at the time that it was an edited dub off the master reel, but listening to it critically, there's too much hiss for that. I still have that reel, transfered from it directly to dat.
From Dat, it went through a Digi96 card to my hard disk. Sound Forge was used to normalize, anti-alias and resample to 44.1, then CD WAV to track it out.
Those WAV files were directly converted to SHN.
I hope that spreading this copy causes an even better one to arise out there, because this show deserves some attention.
It has never failed to stop the conversation at any gathering where I've played it.

Enjoy!
Mike McCaw
