notes
This is the true recorder 2 of the gig. Very bad recording, or rather this tape
reveals a lotta hiss and a quite distant sound, it's also pretty shrilling in
some loud parts. I can't guess how the original master of this recorder sounds.
The cassettes used to run slow, I tried to fix the speed +6 on the deck but
still it runs a bit slow to me.
Almost all the tuneups between the songs are not included, although it was
either made an amazing work of editing on the tapes or the recorder got a decent
"pause" option, since no stop or tapeflip is audible in almost all the points.
The recorder is almost complete except a weird cut at the beginning of Echoes;
the pin's start then the recording stops and the first part of the song was
recorded at a low volume as it seems, then stops again and reprises louder... I
thought of a patch but checking that part with recorder 1
they didn't correspond each other, if it is a patch it
isn't from recorder 1 (I left that portion isolated on the discs). Another cut
is on TGGITS, the song is incomplete and reprises after a cut from the very end
to Money.
TGGITS also starts at the end of side sideB and
reprises on sideC with a little
portion repeated that I edited out, the point of junction of the 2 sides isn't
perceptible on the cds.
Apart this I left all untouched as always. |
