Notes: Phil Harris/Archivist 8.1.00
This was one of 9 shows they did that Summer
as part of the "Hot Rize Reunion". Hot Rize officially
disbanded in 1990, but played several shows in 92,94,96,
and 98. Charles Sawtelle died in March 1999. SLADE!


Recording Notes: Phil Harris/Archivist
This recording is not perfect, but sounds
awesome and the performance is one of my personal favorites.
This is a full digital recording and no edits have been done
to the sound with the exception of balancing/boosting the
recording levels to normalize. There is a slight amount of
hiss present that originated from the SBD(signal:noise ratio),
not the DAT, edits, or transfer.
The 2nd set was originally 84 minutes
including introduction and applause before/after the set.
I removed 3:30 of the introduction/applause and edited
the encore applause seamlessly to remove 26 sec from the first encore
and 41 seconds from the second encore. None of the music or
chatter from the stage was edited or touched in any way.
The show is complete and with the above exceptions
is not missing one second. Hope you enjoy the TWANG.
