View NotesComments:
First 11 seconds of d1t01 are spliced from previously circulating SBD source which was uprendered to 24/96 using Waves IDR.

This source has less hiss than the other good sounding circulating sources and the lineage does not mention a VHS tape.

This source from my listening has less hiss than the other good sounding circulating sources and better stereo imaging.

View NotesComments:

- I started transferring and or editing Mark McCue’s personal cassette collection in 2005. 
This source fits in the top ten out of all of them (sound and performance quality). I’d like to thank 
Mark and all of his friends who made these tapes with such love and care. Working on the recordings has 
brought so much fun and enjoyment into my life. It all started because they couldn’t get their 
hands on enough great sounding tapes from recent tours. So, they went up front and did it themselves.
