This is one of those things I've wanted to do for a long time...and it was a hell of a lot of work putting
together. However like most things I torrent here it tends to be something I want to enjoy myself
so I then share it.

Many of the '76 tour recordings are fantastic, but like any old tapes / archive recordings some songs
are subject to wow and flutter (speed 'wobble'), tape damage, or simply in some cases Neil and the band's
performance doesn't cut it (heresy! :)), or at least what they did on the night wasn't as well captured
on tape.

So putting together a compilation like this is my way of enjoying my favourite moments from a tour...
the selections were culled from the highest quality recordings. Speed corrections were carried out in
Audacity...the Nagoya 3rd March and Boston 22nd November early show seemed to be the closest to the correct
pitch and the fact these were the highest quality recordings seems to bear that out. Osaka 5th March had
some fantastic quality performances (both in terms of sound quality and performance) but sadly many of the
songs suffered from speed wobble...some of the selections I have used do too, but the ones I kept in were
very much unique, or unique in high quality.

There will be a part 2...much of it will cover similar ground, including different versions of the same
songs, which while sometimes not as stellar sound quality as the selections here have their own beauty.
The latter compilation will also feature a couple more obscure tracks.

In the meantime, enjoy this I hope....
