2nd Audience Source: "The Hellman Tape"

Mono Audience recording - Raw version
Total time: 98 min
Presumably 1st generation but more likely 2nd or 3rd generation** *

*** The generation is uncertain, but is probably 2nd or 3rd Gen.
Unfortunately the cassette dub was screwy, so the sound is worse
than a typical Low Gen tape. In particular, some sections are noisy
due to low record levels. "Foxy Lady" (74) is one of those poor
sounding sections, while "Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)" (63) and
"Purple Haze" (83) probably are the best recorded songs.
The tape is generally worse sounding than the 1st Aud Source,
but "Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)" (63) and "Purple Haze" (83)
are similar quality, maybe even a little better.

Notes:
- The Cassette dub consists of 6 segments,
which all run too fast and have different
input levels:

Cassette peak level -10 dB, CDR input level 10, 12.3% fast:
