REMASTER (with new source)
---------------------------
John Surman, Jack Bruce, Jon Hiseman
BBC Radio 3'Jazz In Britain'
-----------------------------

Recorded at Maida Vale Studios, London, England, 10 August 1971
(Originally broadcast in two parts on 31 August 1971 and 23 February 1972)
and the Third Stroke 26 June 1978

and...
New source from from 'hopboy's Jack Bruce collection - many thanks !!
- higher frequency spectrum and lower noise, so thought to be pre-FM

Changes made (Nero 7):

Disk1:
Cut and cross-faded abrupt fade / silence between tracks
Cross-faded tracks (80:20) to correct extreme R>L mix
Corrected varing balance between and within tracks
Cut 1.5sec gap / silence near the end of track 6
Deleted track 3 (duplicate of Eleven)
Applied Nero noise print NR

Disk2: (Announcer tracks unchanged)
Cross-faded tracks (80:20) to correct extreme R>L mix
Reduced L channel to 80% to corrected stereo balance offset
Applied very slight high frequency boost to match disk1


Quality: A+ disk1, EX disk2, superb for this vintage
--------------------------------------

This is an upgrade of my previous post with a completely new source for the 1978 set by
the very kind offices of member 'hopjoy'. Apparently they called themselves 'At the Third
Stroke'now that we also have the radio announcer tracks as well.

The recording is much higher quality and lower noise than the tracks they replace, whilst
also adding the third missing track, actually the last one although the original tracks
names we now know were incorrect. It also required very much less editing (above) and is
presented now as disk 2, although the whole lote will fit on one CDR-90.

In line with Dime Mods guidance, the torrent name and all file and unchanged track names
remain the same as the previous post, so those that already grabbed the original post
will be able to just download the new improved tracks. In which case, you need to select
the original download folder, not a new one, otherwise you'll download all the tracks
again.

So whether you have the original or are new to this superb music whose quality is quite
remarkable for the vintage...

...Enjoy !!
