Notes


Jim Croce & Maury Muehleisen
Agora Ballroom, Cleveland, OH
1972-11-15 - SBD

Lineage: vinyl>Magix>WAV>FLAC Level 6

A big thank you to all that have shared some fine Jim Croce
shows recently. This is a great show that I had on vinyl back
in the late 70's, and fortunately my brother still had a copy.
This is a fresh rip from his vinyl bootleg. The name of the
boot is "Dead Men Still Tell Tales".

I had recently seeded this show at a couple of other
torrent sites, but this one is a bit different. The previous
lineage was "vinyl>Magix>CD>EAC>WAV>FLAC Level 6". At the urging
of some folks, I was able to remove a generation by getting the
direct rip from vinyl from my brother for this torrent. I don't
know that there is an appreciable difference in sound quality,
but there you have it. A "generation" has now been removed.

He used a piece of software called "Magix" to capture this, and a very
light touch to remove only some of the clicks and pops. Plenty of vinyl
artifacts remain periodically throughout.

I've scanned the original bootleg cover and included that here as well.
As you'll see, it's a picture of Carlos Santana! Funny stuff.

Anyway, the sound is really great - my old copy of the bootleg guide
"Hot Wacks" calls it "excellent stereo" and I can't argue. It's up
there with the best of the Jim Croce boots in terms of sound quality
and performance, in my opinion. Hope you enjoy this!
