This is a project from 2 friends of mine. Mark Z. pulled a fantastic recording of a great performance. The only minor compaints were a little wind phasing, and some natural distance and echo from this being an open air audience recording. When RRE was coming to town in '06, I gave my buddy Chuck a copy of the show so he could hear the band. Chuck owns a small recording studio in Charlotte, NC and is a producer and audio engineer. He brought it back to me the next day, and said "you should listen to this now." I was amazed at how a professional's touch could improve what was already a great audience recording. I gave a copy to Mark to listen to, and he liked it - so it was seeded to etree on 9/06.

This led to several other remastering projects by Chuckness - Van Halen in Charlotte, Billy Joel/Elton John in Hartford, and Pink Floyd 11/16/74. I'm re-uploading it to Dime now, to put this back into circulation
