SBD stereo master recording was taped, transferred, and remastered by Monte Barry

Source:
SBD stereo mix > Nakamichi 550 portable cassette recorder w/ Dolby NR > Nakamichi Chromium Dioxide 90-minute cassettes

Lineage:
MC > Nakamichi 550 > Lexicon Alpha 24-bit / 48 khz > USB > Samplitude 24-bit / 48 khz > 16-bit / 44.1 khz > TLH > Flac > SBE fixed

notes:
I used battery-power for Nak 550 transfer to eliminate all hum and ground loops
title info above is all that exists on my original cassette liner notes
pedal steel convention was an annual event in St Louis in 1976 when I went there
there are some track cuts and a few SBD cuts, dropouts and level shifts
some recordings I paused on-the-fly
other times I left tape rolling a little bit
abrupt cuts are cleaned up and cross-faded
tracks are normalized to improve audio level continuity
track changes are seamless

enjoy this beautiful American-heritage treasure
immacculate dynamic range and analog sound -- produced in studio quality

-- peace to all
-- thanks for sharing, Monte
