2nd November 1999

A few months ago traink gave me a box full of DAT tapes. At the time he transferred a few tapes to cassette for personal use.
It's possible copies of those cassettes circulate in a small circle, but this is the first time the DAT tapes have been extracted to wave.
Reelclasio did a 16/48 transfer. I did some minor editing, tracked the files, flacced them etc.and finally share them in 16/44.1

I already shared the Townes Van Zandt and the Eric Taylor shows traink sent me.
Fifth installment of seven Chris Smither shows to clebrate Dime's 10th anniversary.
