ZZ Top
Pine Knob
Clarkston, MI
April 15th, 1980 (Deguello Tour)
(Speed-Corrected, No TAO Silence Version)


** mp3 samples provided (as always) in the Comments section **


Source: Low Gen Analog Soundboard Recording > CD-R > EAC > Sound Forge 4.5 (speed correction) > FLAC

This is the speed-corrected version of an earlier seed which ran too slow. The speed was increased using Sonic Foundry Sound Forge 4.5's Pitch effect. This was increased by 80.0 Cents on each track. The resulting pitch is that of the original tuning used on the Deguello LP. This was done cross referencing the first track of each recording which turns out to be, "I Thank You".

In addition, this seed has had the previously present TAO silence removed from each track.

Real nice soundboard of a fantastic "Deguello" Tour stop on the outskirts of Detroit! It's got that lowdown old ZZ sound. A high point of this show is the song "Barefootin'", the only known performance of the song. There's the "Crosses Sermon", from none other than Rev. Willie G. and one helluva La Grange Medley too! Great vibe and the crowd is insane. Ahhhh, the good 'ol days.
