Patti Smith
June 6, 2001
Village Underground, New York City, USA

*FIXED2*
The music is identical to the previous postings.

I only fixed an error in the *tags* on the FLAC files (Tracknumber and Discnumber were in the Comment field; Tag Frontend, the program I originally tagged the FLACs with, didn't even have Tracknumber and Discnumber fields). Then I updated this .txt file and recreated the .md5 file.

(FIXED1 was back in August 2007 because disc one of the original March 2006 fileset contained SBEs because I still had some stuff to learn at the time.)

If you have a different recording of this show, this source might be an upgrade; there's an inferior-sounding alternate source; and some copies of this superior-sounding source in circulation are the wrong speed (details below in "technical note"); and I patched a half-second of static (see "fix" below).

SQ: A short mp3 sample is attached to a comment. Excellent, I rate it "A".

Lineage: Digital audience recording of otherwise unknown lineage I got by mail, CDR>EAC>Sound Forge>FLAC(level 8)

Artwork included; many thanks to G. The Cock for reworking the original artwork, I love it! He created two versions, one for slimline (2CD) jewelcases, and another for double-size (6CD) cases.

*Fix*
Patched 0.597 second of digistatic d1t1 between 0:05.060 & 0:05.657 with the matching section of the alternate source (normalized, with three-quarter second crossfades).

*Known flaw*
faint static d2t11 7:12.966 to 7:17.153 (I didn't patch it because it's on the alternate source too, so perhaps it's from the PA)

*Technical note*
When I first got recordings of this 3-night (6/5/01, 6/6/01, 6/7/01) run, they were the best-sounding Patti recordings I had, but there was diginoise (some 6/5/01, lots the other nights). They pale in comparison to this alternate, superior source for the 3-night run.

Actually I got 2 sets of this superior source, which was fortunate because the speeds of the 2 sets differ. One set is the correct speed (exactly matching the speed of the first, inferior-sounding recordings I got), the other set is the wrong speed, faster by:
0.13% for 6/5/01, 10.13 seconds for the show
0.02% for 6/6/01, 1.6 seconds for the show
0.04% for 6/7/01, 2.98 seconds for the show
This fast set of discs is 4th generation from originals, so who knows how many such wrong speed copies there are in circulation; incidentally, the channels (left/right) are switched on the 'fast' set.
