Notes (from '99 transfer): Only the left channel was recorded - on the master cassette, the right channel was blank. The left channel was cloned to create a 2-channel mono recording.

This recording played far too slowly. Speed was corrected, increased about 3.47%. (This was determined by taking a studio recording that was on the tape and comparing it to the same song that I had on CD and then calculating the correct speed.)

No Dolby use was indicated on the cassette, so it was not used on playback. No noise reduction was attempted, so there is some tape hiss.
