16 bit version from the collection of chopper7

Lineage: cass (?) > Optimus SCT-57 playback deck > Adobe Audition 1.5 (recording at 24/96, NR, EQ, limiting, track indexing, conversion to 16/44.1) > TLH (SBE fix, flac 8)

This is an unusual conglomeration here. There were two cassettes in the collection, each of them incomplete, and each from different tapers. The first tape that makes up the first 8 songs is a rather distant, tonally flat and hissy recording. It had a piece (3 songs) missing that sounded like they weren't taped at the show judging by the sound of the splice. This recording lasts for the first seven songs, stops, then resumes for a last gasp for the Brecker/Gad solos.

The second tape is a first gen tape off Keith Weiner and was the remainder of the show beginning at The Coast. It had a good sounding version of Proof on it as well, so that was dropped in. Keith was having trouble with his girlfriend and didn't record the entire show. He also was using his new DAT recorder for the first time (and having trouble), which is why he didn't tape the solos.
