Stephane Grappelli Live Spring 1976 Reel-to-Reel Fragment SBD *reseed*

This 20 minute jaw-dropping performance was taped live as it happened and off the air sometime in April or May of 1976 on a then brand-new first-generation Sony Trinitron 13" TV. The Trinitron was notable for not only being a stereo TV, but for also being equipped with a headphone jack. Unfortunately, the Ampex 456 mastering tape being used has not stood the test of time. It needed to be baked in order for it to be playable. If the subject of tape baking interests you, this is not the first time I have done it, or that "Mrs. Doinker" has allowed it.

I have done the best I could with the setlist. When this torrent was posted in 2006, the last two tracks were identified at that time. Unfortunately, someone couldn't locate the notes. Please help out again!:

If you know this style of music, certainly you will instantly recognise the last two tracks. Whether or not you can name them is another matter; they are heavily improvised. Please provide any corrections.

Sadly, I have no records of which stellar cast was playing as backup, where this was recorded, or how long the original broadcast was.

Lineage: Ampex 456 mastering reel ->Oven baking 12 hrs -> Sound Forge 6.0 ->Mono to Stereo conversion ->60hz and 129hz hum removal ->CD Architect ->cdr ->Nero 6.6 ->FLAC

Enjoy!
