ADJUSTMENTS: THE LEVELS WENT CRAZY FOR A FEW SECONDS DURING VOODOO CHILE. GOODY COPIED
THE L CHANNEL TO THE R AND R TO L TO HELP DROP OUTS. THERE ARE A FEW SECONDS OF MONO. HE
RAISED THE VOLUME ON THE LEFT CHANNEL. HE ADDED SOME SLIGHT EQ TO THIS AREA TO HELP THE
OVER ALL SOUND IN THERE WAS A SECOND OR TWO WITH DISTORTION, BUT HE REDUCED THE HARSHNESS
A BIT.
GOING BACK 30 YEARS... WOW I HAD BOUGHT MY NEW SONY D5 DECK A FEW MONTHS BEFORE THIS SHOW AND HAD
BEEN RECORDING A BUNCH OF SHOWS WITH IT. I COULDNT WAIT FOR THE CHICAGO BLUES FEST TO COME BECAUSE
SRV WAS PLAYING. IT WAS THE 2ND ANNUAL CBF. I HAD BEEN USING MY TRUSTY IOWA CM-30 MIC. IT WAS REALLY
A GREAT MIC FOR THE TIME, NICE AND SMALL, GREAT SOUND FOR A FAIRLY CHEAP MIC. THE DAY OF THE BLUES
FEST I GOT THERE EARLY AND RAN DOWN TO GRAB A SEAT FOR ME AND MY GIRLFRIEND. THE SOUND WAS A BIT
FUNKY AT FIRST BUT THEY CLEANED IT UP DURING THE 1ST SONG. I MAY HAVE COVERED THE MIC UP A BIT AS
SECURITY WAS RIGHT BY ME FOR A BIT DURING THE 1ST SONG. STEVIE PUT ON A GREAT SHOW. THE D5 BEING
FAIRLY NEW, I TRIED TO BALANCE THE LEVELS, A BIT TOO MUCH DURING VOODOO CHILE. BESIDES THOSE FEW
SECONDS DURING VC, THE RECORDING IS PRETTY GOOD. THE PERFOMANCE WAS GREAT. WHAT IS SAD IS THAT STEVIE
DIDNT GET TO PLAY LONGER. A SPECIAL THANKS TO GOODY FOR HELPING ME OUT WITH SOME VOODOO CHILE REPAIRS.
I WENT ON RECORDED SRV AT POPLAR CREEK IN 1986 & 1987 (PREVIOUSLY TORRENTED ON DIME)
I CANT BELIEVE ITS BEEN 30 YEARS SINCED I RECORDED THIS SHOW. SO IN HONOR OF THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY, AND
THE UPCOMMING 2015 CHICAGO BLUES FESTIVAL, I OFFER UP THIS VERY MEMORABLE SRV SHOW. DO ENJOY THIS VERSION.
