Notes:
These stratcat58 tapes which neonknight transferred in June 2017 turned out to be a tape source of recorder 1 of the first Wembley show of 1977 which thus far was only digitally available transferred from vinyl, released in 1977 in Japan and re-released on the Toasted label in 1979. Upon comparing the two sources there are some interesting differences content wise:
The Knobs LP source starts with a slow running one minute and 22 secs fragment of Sheep which turns out to be from an alternate, unknown recorder of the Wembley show of the 19th. After this there's a hard splice and the recording of the show proper starts. Stratcat58's tape fades in on the intro of Sheep with 53 seconds not present on the vinyl source. The vinyl source has a fragment of ambience more after Sheep before it cuts into the start of POTW pt 1 but misses 36 seconds between this song and Dogs. The applause after Dogs and POTW pt 2 on the vinyl source is faked and most likely taken from another part of the show. The tape source has 2 seconds of ambience before POTW pt 2 not on the vinyl source and 27 seconds more between POTW pt 2 and Pigs. SOYCD I-V cuts in about 40 secs earlier at the start on the vinyl source but for some reason a fragment was edited out along with Dave's count-in just before he starts playing (also to be heard on recorder 2). The vinyl source cuts off a few secs earlier at the cut at the very end of SOYCD I-V and misses about 10 secs more. At the very end of WTTM the vinyl source cuts at the start of the applause where the tape source runs through to the start of HAC. At the cut after HAC the vinyl source misses a few secs more. At the very end of WYWH the vinyl source runs through about 25 secs where the tape source cuts off, the latter however resumes a few secs earlier before the start of SOYCD 6-9. Finally, the vinyl source has a cross fade from SOYCD 6-9 into Money not present on the tape source and has an extra 20 secs of crowd noise and cash register sounds before Money starts.
