Lineage - monophonic soundboard mix > unknown recording deck > Maxell XLII90 cassette master (no Dolby).
Transfer - Nakamichi Dragon > Macintosh with Digidesign Audiomedia III sound card > Pro Tools (normalization, minor "nip and tuck" edits and tracking) > AIFF > xACT (Flac level 8 files with sector boundaries verified).

Notes: Many never-copied cassette masters have been left with me to check out and transfer "when I get time". This is one of them... The files were numbered to approximate the full order of the show that day that also included Anson Funderburgh and The Rockets, Katie Webster, The Neville Brothers, Otis Rush, Johnny Copeland, Charlie Musselwhite, Little Milton, and The Mighty Clouds Of Joy (plus a few other lesser-known acts).

Enjoy and SHARE!
