Recorded at the high school jazzbike2 attended in a suburb of Albany, NY, in mono on unknown reel-to-reel tape deck off mike on stand in front of stage. I think I worked off second generation dub. Playback on Akai GX-4000D reel-to-reel tape deck.Used Sony Sound Forge to extrapolate mono channel onto both, slight bass and high frequency boost and convert from WAV to FLAC.

Sound quality: C. Pitch seems right and balance is decent but frequency range is limited.
