This is a beautiful soundboard recording of the entire Dylan portion (minus
Isis) of the 1976-05-03 show at the Warehouse in New Orleans. Bobsboots.com
says of this release, on the Yellow Cat label: "This is a great show that
has been released several times in the past, always incomplete. This is the
best version to date." A great recording, not marred by the oversaturation
that exists on a lot of the RTR soundboards. I've got an mp3 sample below,
so check it out before you bite.
BONUS: This is one of those times where the filler is as good as the main
show: there are three outstanding filler tracks included on this to round
out disc 2: Hurricane, Oh Sister, and Simple Twist Of Fate, which are from a
1975-12-13 FM simulcast of the television show "The World of John Hammond."
The fidelity on these is incredible, and Dylan puts in a typical outstanding
mid-70s performance.
What I did to the files: renamed (some had spaces in strange places, making
them not come up in order in WinAmp/Nero, many lacked the date, leading
zeroes, etc), checked for SBEs (none found), and encoded from non-seekable
shn to wav to flac (aligned on SBs), to make them seekable, smaller, and
generally more user friendly. No bits were lost in this process (i.e., no
re-ripping from CD), so if you don't like the fact that I went from shn >
wav > flac, then just convert them back to (non-seekable) shn yourself, and
you'll have the exact original files.
