Jeremy Crowe�s Marantz PMD340 audience master cassette with Dolby B (mics not noted) -> Alan Bershaw's 1/4 Track Maxell UD 35-90 7" Reel@3.75ips

Lineage:
On June 4, 2005 Alan's 3.75ips reel was played back on a Revox A-77 into a Tascam DA-30 DAT@44.1k. On June 7, 2005 the DAT was track indexed and cloned via optical to CDR on a Tascam CDRW-700, the waves were then extracted on a MAC G4 and file names were retitled. SBEok and FLACed using Xact 1.4 by Stu Hanson. Total recording time = 52:40

5. band member introductions and outro announcements... (1:29)

** Before track 2, Sam says that the next three pieces will be selections from the recently released "Colours" album and that he doesn't remember the titles. Maybe someone with that album can help ID most of this tracklist?
