ZZ Top Afterburner Tour - St Paul , Mn . 7th February 1986 .

Lineage: TDK D90 Cassette (Stereo) Audience Recording Generation `X`-> Sony Cassette Deck -> Audacity -> WAV -> Soundforge (Levels tweaked & Normalised) -> Wav -> FLAC
Source: Record Fair in 1986
Time : 1hr 22minutes


This cassette has been in my attic for about 15years or so , so I didn't expect much from it , but to my surprise it has still retained its `original quality` . Its a relatively good audience recording , not very much hiss and a well positioned stereo field , its a shame the dynamics of this were hurt using the `D` range of cassettes .

Anyway , the cassette was mastered to wav and the levels tweaked , I suspect the taper was moving or bringing out the recording device , so an initial 30seconds was at a low volume which Ive tweaked a quite a bit higher to blend into the recording better . There is also another 10second point where this happens (during Tush) , I've tweaked this to a higher volume as well , it produced a noticeable hiss so that point also had hiss reduction as well , as a whole this section blends in better but its noticeable when it happens so my apologies for it being a bit clunky .

I`m not a massive fan of the boys anymore , but this is for those that are .
