SOURCE / LINEAGE

Stereo AUD trade CDR (2nd gen)

Trade CDR > EAC v0.99 > Cool Edit 2000 > TLH v2.4.1 > FLAC 8 > DIME > you
Big thanks to the original taper, and to the trader (Sam) who hooked me up with a copy.
I remastered this 2009-06-21 to put on track marks, as it came to me as 2 long hunks'o'music; nothing in the audio was touched.
This source came straight from the CDR master, extracted via EAC / reports included; after track breakdown, I let TLH remove the SBEs.

During track 12, 2:04 in, there's a skip that was ofiginally accompanied by loud scratch ticks b4/after the skip.
I attempted to redo the extract many times over the past 3 years & could never get a clean one.
So here it is in 2011, with that skip flaw but with the scratch ticks removed.
You hear the tempo shift off for the part-of-a-second-or-two that the skip missed.
Oh well, bummer it's there, but at least you get to hear this great show at last.

NOTES

Snakefinger typically named his band & would often change it up from night to night.
For this show he calls them "the Illusion Smashers".

- - - -

It's low gens, so it's not too hissy at all.
A couple mic bumps here & there, and at one point it sounds like the mic fell on the floor.
You put that aside & it's an otherwise really sweet sounding tape.
But it's Snakefinger, so even if it was a turd blossom, you'd find a nice planter to put it in & give it some water.
And it's a really great show, Snakey even mentions it's a favorite place of his.
