Willie Nelson & Family
Ford Amphitheater at Coney Island
13 September 2016

This set was recorded full econo-mode, straight to my new Edirol R-05s built in mics. Then copied from SD card to my Mac and cut into tracks, volume boosted and exported to FLAC with Amadeus Pro 2. Fingerprints created with xACT; Torrent file ands upload facilitated with Transmit.

I am providing the highest quality file I have at 24/48 audio. Re-convert as you need for CDs or other uses but please do not trade other then original files. (as if I could stop you) If you do not like the way I record or the equipment I use, wait for another upload.

So it is Willie. That means it is a give that the playing and songs are stellar. Willie & Trigger make some of the most amazing music, every day, every time. Plus he wrote a ton of these songs and bey they Willie tunes, Hank tunes, or whomever, all are classics and standards or both. and even as they age, the band still plays amazing, Little Sister Bobbie kills down Yonder for the 1ok’th time ad still kills it. Plus Paul on the drum for Me & Paul. Shit. Who could ask for me. well, me. This was the shortest Willie show I’ve seen and the first time I’ve seen him play Whisky River only once in the set. So, quibbles aside, Willie Rules. Dig it.

Lineup:
Willie Nelson - Guitar and Vocal
Bobbie Nelson - piano
Mickey Raphael - harmonics
Paul & Billy English - Drums & such
Kevin Smith - bass

I hope you Enjoy!

PS: Please Don't Sell This

PSS: For the inevitable requests;
I’m really sorry but I can’t offer other bit depths. There is only so much time in the day and I love to contribute music to this venue and hope that folks enjoy these shows too. So I put to the best of what I have and hope users will take a little effort to get the output files they need. It should be a one step process, I know it is with the Mac based software recommended below. I hope it is just as easy with the windows options.

On the Mac I think XLD is great; you give it a batch of files and it will out put pretty much what ever you need and will easily convert these 24bit flacs to 16bit AIFFs you can burn to CD. It will also allow you to clean up the metadata if you roll that way. Right click to apply to batch. While definitely worth a donation it is totally free, check it out. http://tmkk.undo.jp/xld/index_e.html

For windows, I would love to hear more current suggestions but I have always heard great things about Traders Little Helper. http://tlh.easytree.org/ But I do not use it nor am I 100% sure that it will take a 24bit flac and give your a 16bit wav in one motion. I have also heard good things about http://www.foobar2000.org/ I also had http://www.voxengo.com/product/r8brain/ recommended as a straight bit conversion for free that will take what I gave and give you swell CD quality. GO!

As with all of this windows stuff all the same caveats apply - I don’t use it and have not tried it. Still I would continue to welcome any current confirmation or commentary to help make this note more helpful.

Thanks.
