Notes:

* An alternate version of Uncle John's Band is provided as a work around for the
splice on the master reel at about 5:25 into the song. This alternate track (d1t03alt)
is missing approximately 10 seconds but masks the splice very nicely.

** About 2 seconds were removed near the start of He's Gone to mask a splice from the
1st-gen cassette.

*** Splice in Wharf Rat at 4:49. An alternate track (d2t05alt) patches the splice in
the master reel with about 19 seconds of material from 11/14/73.

**** Levels drop at end of Sugar Magnolia at about 9:05. I boosted the levels 4db from
9:05 to the end.


You may notice that the genealogy of this file set is slightly different from previous
versions. Andy Lemieux assured me that this (MSR>C>DAT>PCM>DAT>CD) is the correct
genealogy for this show. Most copies of this show exhibit intermittent clicking
throughout, which, according to Andy, resulted from a bad PCM>DAT transfer. Like the
version of this show "De-Popped" by Mike Parrillo, the source discs for this file set
came from Howlin' Bob. Mike used SoundForge to fix the clicks individually, and then
used De-Popper to fix any remaining clicks he could not easily identify. Bob felt that
Mike's globally "De-Popped" version sounded over-processed, so I attempted to fix each
click individually using Cool Edit Pro 2.0. While I did not bother to tally the number
of edits made, I would venture to guess that around 200 edits were made. There may be
a few instances where my attempts failed, but overall I think the final product sounds
pretty good. In addition to the clicking issue, I suspected a speed/pitch problem, but
Joe B. Jones subsequently verified the speed/pitch to be right on. Jerry does a great
deal of tuning up during Truckin' (and possibly during Wharf Rat as well), so maybe
things were a bit off on this night, at least with regard to correct pitch. ;^)

Flac encoding notes:
All processing with Trader's Little Helper
Shn - st5 generated

Flac - st5 generated and matched to Shn st5

Tagging notes:
Show information is embedded within the header of each flac file.
It will display on any player capable of directly playing flac
files. If converted to wav during processing, all tags will be
stripped, however audio data will remain unaffected. If you must
transcode to a lossy format, do so directly Flac > Lossy.
Use st5 to validate audio integrity.
Md5 values will change if tagging is altered.

Both versions of UJB & WR have been tagged and given the same track number. You will
have to decide which version to load into your player.
