This was Bunny's first US gig since 1973, and possibly his greatest solo
concert ever performed. It certainly was the longest show, and presents
a nice overview of Bunny's musical career to that point. I got these
tapes in 1987 from someone who worked in the concert lighting business
in Southern California.
There's a lot of tape-surface noise across the entire sound spectrum in
this recording. This may be from wrong Dolby decoding in a pervious
generation, from too many tape generations, or possibly from the master
tape itself. I removed some hiss from the high-end, but not too much,
since I didn't want to muffle the music.
Noted flaws: Bunny's vocals over-saturate and distort in a few spots.
There's a cut in the middle of "Dance Rock" and it sounds like a few
minutes are missing. The beginning of "Rule This Land" fades in. And I've
noted the two songs that are missing entirely. Otherwise, it's all there.
I performed numerous operations with Soundforge: Repaired the pitch
which was off in the first set tape, made fades and edits where needed,
removed some hiss, repaired several dropouts, smoothed some harsh spots
that were distorted, and generally fixed things where ever I could.
If you enjoy this, then support Bunny and go buy some of his many great
albums, like "Sings the Wailers", "Blackheart Man" or "Rule Dance Hall".
