Source:
2 Sony ECM-280 microphones > Sony TC153 SD (w/ Dolby)
The early show was recorded by John and the B-Man (with help from Sue).
My first generation copy is on a reel and my deck needs repair so this is sourced from B-Man's first generation cassette copy.
Master > Akaii (unknown model) cassette deck > Harmon Kardon stand alone CD recorder > ? > CDR's sent to me from BP3 ("THE" source for Spirit info)
I reviewed these 2 discs and there were some minor issues that needed to be cleaned up.
Audacity was used to combine all tracks into one.
Audacity (Removed a few dropouts and the track split gaps found on these 2 discs) > CD Wav > Flac (Level 8) > Stamp ID3 tag editor
The late show was recorded by John and I.
Master cassette (Maxell UDXL-C90) played back on my Nakamichi CR-3A > Audigy 4 pro @ 24/44 >
Audacity (clean up) > Audiogate (convert to 16-44) > CD Wav > Flac (Level 8) > Stamp ID3 tag editor
There are occasional audio disturbances during both sets that I believe came from adjusting the recording levels (with dirty sliding type potentiometers).
"Living in this World" is slightly damaged by this (or something else).
The second set was transferred from the master cassette by me in 2010 and was one of my first torrents.
I went back to the raw 24 bit cassette transfer and re-edited the files for this presentation.
memories:
I had to work until 9:30 that night (Slipped Disc Records) and so John, Sue and Mark went to the show and recorded the early set without me.
Arrived just before the end of the 9:00 show and took over recording the 11:00 show.
John, Sue and Mark went home early so they could get up for work the next day.
As the second set begins you can hear my boss Kevin (who is quite drunk by this time) and that's John mumbling about him and then me laughing.
The other loud drunk is another friend and customer of the store, Tim (Mr. D).
I edited out some of their comments and what's left is not too distacting (almost funny actually).
Thank goodness the audience stayed reasonably quiet while the band was playing.
I remember that we shared a table with John Lock's mother.
She was very nice and was curious about the microphones and tape recorder.
Quite difficult to try and hide a big deck like this and you really didn't always have to, yet.
Don't remember the recording position for the first set.
The second set was recorded from about 15 feet from the stage and towards the right side.
We were all big Spirit fans and had seen them many times in the past couple years.
This was one of my favorite recordings from those days.
Includes simple home-made CD cover art incorporating scans of the ticket stubs.
