Editing notes:
* A 0.15-second station dropout (silence) at 17.6 seconds into Track 4 was repaired with a 0.25-second splice from a similar passage elsewhere in the song.
* A 65-second station ID was removed at the end of Track 9. The applause at the end of the track is faded down then a half-second of silence is inserted before Track 10 fades up.
* A -30db notch filter was used to remove the 19kHz FM pilot tone.
* The entire recording was normalized by 1.71 db, leaving 0.10 db head room.

The Tin Men were scheduled to play the Blues Tent from 11:15 a.m. to 12:10 p.m. on the first Thursday of the 2024 Jazzfest. The set was broadcast live by WWOZ-FM.

This over-the-airwaves FM broadcast was recorded by Richard Russell (nolataper) in New Orleans. It is not from the online mp3 live stream.
