processing --
-- normalized new source levels to match old source levels
-- switched channels on new source to match old source
-- down-converted & down-sampled new source to 44.1 Khz / 16-bit

tracking & editing -- both sources
-- re-assembled each source back together - d1t04, d1t05, d1t06
-- edited the patches using X-fades
-- re-tracked d1t04, d1t05, d1t06

d1t04 St Stephen patched w/ new source 01:33 - 02:41 (end) - new track length is 02:41
d1t05 It's a Sin patched w/ new source 00:00 - 01:54 - new track length is 03:55
d1t06 St Stephen becomes 2:13 - new tracking creates track length 00:01 longer

file conversions using TLH
TLH insisted on fixing all the tracks for SBEs
entire fileset now becomes a new source and fresh transfer
checksums and torrent created using TLH

"I was out doing yardsales recently.  I had the SYF hat on and was looking for some fans for the hot Tucson summer.  Got to talking with this one fella and the GD came up.  He said to me after hearing about LL that he had some tapes.  I asked him if he knew where they came from.  He said "I cant tell ya man".  I thot he meant that he " didnt know cant tell" but out he walked with a lil treasure chest of some cassettes. The cases werent pretty but the tapes were high end pro tapes.  I asked him again where he got them and again he said "I cant tell you" but it seems your folks in the trading world might like them  Well, i got home and found too many treasure to note.  He told me they werent always on the best dubbing deck and some had been played and were at least 25 years old (some older) but he was sure that these versions were recorded by what he termed a "dear old buddy" and official channels and he had them for years and years and would like some of them to see the light of day.  More to come."

first up here is a a partial sbd (most of the tapes are).  
the reason i chose it is that the stephen>its a sin>stephen is complete and i thought it of value since the Master Reel isn't.  No "brutal cut".

  **this seed is 24 bit 192 for patching the master reel if and hopefully when, a high resolution source surfaces. This source is unprocessed.  16/44.1 bit version coming soon Enjoy.**
