The two sides were spliced together using audition, and the tracks were convereted and split from 24/48 to cd
friendly 16 bit using cd wave.


JOHNELEE is thrilled to share his FM master tape, and he sees the blues as being one of America's Greatest Treasures.
Captured here is one such treasure, and Ms James does not dissappoint a packed crowd at the second annual
Chicago Blues Fest. This charged performance is not only highlighted by by great vocals, but an intense
guitar as well. Her backing band was clearly rooted in the blues, but had zero trouble rocking out.


The mix was pretty solid, The guitar is loud and bright, with nice bass throughout the show. There is a bit of hiss
It is nothing distracting and more evident during the quiet parts. Track 8 cuts during the outro of the song.
Don't think any songs are missing. Outside of that you get a great sounding 28 yr old tape. 8-8.5/10
