notes:

Tape Labeled: 1981 June 15 - Earl's Court
generation: 1st
original 1st gen cassette label =
Maxell CrO2 60x2
transferred by me in June 2007 from borrowed cassette tapes with many thanks to W!:
my playback deck = TEAC W-860R
my audio card = Sound Blaster Live
recorded into HD via Cool Edit Pro
CD-Wave for splitting tracks

Side A:
MC intro / ITF ... Goodbye Blue Sky
Side B:
Mother ... Goodbye Cruel World

Side C: Hey You ... ITF (beginning)

Side D: ITF (from the beginning again) ... Outside The Wall

Excellent quality version of the 1st recorder of the gig (the one in general circulation)

This tape has much more ambience than the version of this recorder I had before, also it's much less hissy although it is missing someway "power" and "hights", but just if you want to be picky about it.

Also, the pitch is different than on the other version I had before, this tapes run slower but I prefer the way they sound, I didn't retouch the pitch.

This tape has also few seconds of recording more than the common version:

- it has the whole MC intro (no fade in)

- at the end of the 1st set, after the announcer tells the audience about the intermission the taper or someone near to the mic. says "fu** you", he also says *fu** you" at the end of the 2nd set! (these "pieces" were edited out from the version of this recorder I had before)
I kept all raw not applying any post-processing and/or boosting. I amplified the transferred files at the max I could as it stands well the loud volume (still almost no hiss is perceptible)

- I joined the end of sideA with the beginning of sideB removing a portion repeated, the point of junction of the 2 sides isn't perceptible
and occurs during GBS
- I joined the end of sideC with the beginning of sideD removing a portion repeated, the point of junction of the 2 sides isn't perceptible
and occurs right before ITF starts
- I left untouched the 2 cuts occurring inside the tapesides as they are on the tape, probably they are the points where the master stops (?) they are also on the other CDs from this recorder; they are exactly:
- on set1 between Young Lust and OOMT (no music missing)
- on set2 between RLH and WFTW (no music missing)

I indexed the trax in order to have the change right on the cuts.
