This tape came from Caroline Welch (a/k/a Carlisle) who passed away in July 2008 and is still missed.

The recording comes from a cassette dubbed on 04/18/88 and therefore has at least one generation to it. Based on the levels of hiss, probably 2 or 3 generations. It also has a strange level imbalance beginning in Lazy Tiger, which moves around occasionally and sounds like an electrical imbalance in the inputs to the original recording deck. It has been evened out quite a bit. This appears to be the only recording known for this date.

Only a fragment of Peggy-O is present. Unclear how much else is missing. There may have been a set break after Wharf Rat.

Enjoy!
