April 15th, 1980 (Deguello Tour)
Pine Knob, Claskston, MI
(Speed-Corrected, No TAO Silence Version)

Source: Low Gen Analog Soundboard Recording > CD-R > EAC > Sound Forge 4.5 (speed correction) > FLAC

This is the speed-corrected version of an earlier seed which ran too slow. The speed was increased using Sonic Foundry Sound Forge 4.5's Pitch effect. This was increased by 80.0 Cents on each track. The resulting pitch is that of the original tuning used on the Deguello LP. This was done cross referencing the first track of each recording which turns out to be, "I Thank You".

In addition, this seed has had the previously present TAO silence removed from each track.

Real nice soundboard of a fantastic "Deguello" Tour stop on the outskirts of Detroit! It's got that lowdown old ZZ sound. A high point of this show is the song "We're Barefootin'", the only known performance of the song. There's the "Crosses Sermon", from none other than Rev. Willie G. and one helluva La Grange Medley too! Great vibe and the crowd is insane. Ahhhh, the good 'ol days.

For those of you that want to know the history behind the recording...

The mixing desk outputs (2 channels in this case) were always sent backstage so that the performers/stagehands/other crew could hear the show via overhead speakers (at this venue). It just so happened that a reel-to-reel machine was setup off of stage-left (above a ceiling tile) - pretty nifty.

I don't believe the person that originally made the recordings provided the original upload. I do know he swore that no one else would get a copy - perhaps he's changed his mind. I guess enough time passes that anything can happen. There is another that may also have the original.

Not to make everyone here salivate, but there are many such recordings that took place at Pine Knob (The one in Clarkston, MI).

Enjoy - it was a great show from stage-right.
