notes:
This show has previously circulated on CD-R, with the "AT 822" source. This is a fresh transfer to FLAC, and the DAT was labeled "AT 825." Just to be clear, there is only one source of this show in existence. The DAT tapes that were used in this transfer are either master DATs or first generation clones. Therefore, I think the "AT 825" source is likely correct. Regardless, this is the only existing source of the show. Although it has circulated fairly widely as audio CDs or on analog, I have yet to see a clean transfer (with no DAE) straight to FLAC (or SHN). As on all the copies, First Tube is really saturated, and is hardly listenable. The rest of the show is much better. Too bad it's the only source, because it's such a historic show.
