Lineage: unknown audience/transfers > LB-4575, (73min+80min), bittorrent download 03/07; good sound [C-]; volume level drop for d2t9 discontinuities at track boundaries can be heard most of the time; mic hit d1t1 1:06, d1t2 0:08, d1t5 4:02, d1t6 3:08, d1t7 1:30 plus more; drop d1t6 1:08, d2t1 0:017 >


Fix: Fixing: Wave Repair 4.9.3 to manually clean triple index clicks and REPEATED segments/stutters between tracks (mostly audible if Bob is talking). Cool Edit Pro 2.1, normalized to -3db AATW and IAR which had sudden drop in volume and My Back Pages and I’m Ready to -0db [after removing mic bumps at 1:07 and 3:15 which prevented normalization due to spikes in thier waveform]. Normalised tracks are audibly seemless with the rest of the recording in terms of volume, hiss comparison or quality. Manually fixed various digital clicks as per DFF logs [attached] > FLAC

Thank you. Here’s a love ballad I wrote a little while back. The story about three people in love. (before Tangled Up In Blue)

Thank you. We gonna take a break right here, for a short while. Anyway this next song I recorded a few years back with The Band, you remember The Band? Right, this is off an album we did called Planet Waves. Sold about four copies. (before Going, Going, Gone)

Thank you. This is a song I wrote in Mexico. I was on a train that stopped at a place called Chihuahua. (before Señor (Tales Of Yankee Power))

Thank you. Thank you very much. We'd like to play this song for you. Anyway, we've been accused of playing disco music. Falsely accused of playing disco music. (before Don't Think Twice, It's All Right)

Thank you, all right. Can you hear the bass and drums out there tonight? All right! On the drums tonight, from Kingston, Jamaica, please give him a warm hand, Mr. Ian Wallace! On the bass guitar, Mr. Jerry Scheff. Actually, you’re a beautiful crowd. Just one of the best crowds we’ve ever had. Over on the organ, that's Alan Pasqua. Right there on the keyboards. On the lead guitar tonight, Mr. Billy Cross. On the rhythm guitar, from Tombstone, Arizona, the ever ready Mr. Steven Soles. He never sleeps. And on the mandolin and violin and sometimes lead electric guitar, the youngest member of the group, he's only fifteen years old. Doesn't smoke dope, he doesn't drink whiskey, he doesn't go out with women, he doesn't eat meat. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. David Mansfield! On the tenor saxophone, Mr. Steve Douglas. On the backup vocals tonight my three girlfriends, sometimes girlfriends. On the left, Jo Ann Harris. An in the middle, Miss Helena Springs. A wonderful future and a great behind. On the left, Carolyn Dennis. On the conga drums, from Detroit, Miss Bobbye Hall. All right, thank you very much. Thank you a lot. This is called It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding.

Thank you, we're gonna go now. Anyway, we’ll leave you with this song. I wrote it a few years back for one of my kids and I recorded it with The Band on this same album called Planet Waves. (before Forever Young)
