comments:

I have 2 different recordings of this concert, both from the same source, except one is a tape copy and a disc copy straight from a master reel. So I went with the disc copy. It comes from the same source as the delightful, but very offspeed U.K. 78 Toronto show I posted so I thought this one isn't also offspeed before I posted it in Aug. 2008 at torrent #209003. (It was.) So I did a new extraction of my source CD and gave it a -65 cent pitch adjust, as was done to the U.K. one and it sounds MUCH better now (as does the U.K.). It's not quite as good sound as that is, but pretty close, just the slightest of static in some parts, overall quite enjoyable. this is the only FM show I've heard from what had to be the Berklee College of Music Album of the Year in 1977 (also "Guitar Player" magazine's choice for same.)

Do not sell this recording.
Trade freely, losslessly and gaplessly.
