Notes
Mastering Notes
- Software applied - WaveLab 5.0 > iZotope Ozone 3 > CD Wave Editor 1.9 > c8brain [24/96 to 16/44.1 Downsample] > FLAC [Level 8]
- Peaks lowered slightly with Nomad Limiting Amplifier, along with slight RMS level increase.
- Processed about 100 handclaps to reduce their relative decibel level, most noticeably at the beginning of d1t03.
- d2t02 - Beginning of "Lost Sailor" was cut and faded in.
- No patch sources were used.
- Cross-fades were applied at tape flips before at pauses between songs when necessary.
Notes
- d1t03 - Slightly noticeable stuttering effect during "Friend Of The Devil" due to processing of handclaps during mastering; mainly noticeable during beginning of song.
- d2t02 - Missing lyrics "Compass card is spinning" and some amount of instrumental lead-in at beginning of "Lost Sailor".
- d2t04 - Jerry vocal problems during "Terrapin Station", going into the fifth verse after the first lead guitar solo. Jerry either blanks out or there's a technical issue. They play the complete verse phrasing, plus some - but with instruments only - then recover and Jerry does the lyrics.

Subject: Great Show, Beautiful Barry
Great second set though Bobby’s Minglewood and Sailor > Saint are not up to par. I had to snicker again at Bobby “singing” Minglewood at the beginning like he was signing it in 9/2 and 9/4/79 (see my reviews) though he's almost out of his Pat Boone phase and the energy and his growl improves through the song)). Everybody knows you don’t sing Minglewood. You growl it (And why? Because you were raised in a lion's den, that's why.). Both it and Sailor > Saint don’t have much life in them and drag, with Bobby being slightly off key and off tempo at the start of Sailor. So I added a little pep in music editing which helped quite a bit. But the balls-to-the-wall Miracle > Bertha > Good Lovin' with the U.S. Blues encore makes up for it and puts this show over the top to five stars with Barry's sound quality. Those four songs, when they show up together at the end, has always been one of my favorite closers.
Definitely a "sweet spot" or 1st row balcony recording. Just the right amount of reverb and off the crowd for a very pleasant listen. Didn't have to mess with the ambience knobs and sliders at all. And hey, I've got no problem with the location. Thanks Barry. Thanks Boyz.

Thinking about it, most Fox tapes I've heard have some boom. I've seen it but never been in it for a show, so its hard to say what the cause is. I know it's highly regarded as a hall, so perhaps it was just tough to tape in.
By this time the tapers had mastered the art and there was a plentiful supply, often as good as the soundboard. I remember talking to other tapers at shows about the esoterics of microphone pick-up patterns and the precise alignment of the mics to the source speakers - too close and you started to hear stage monitors, too distant and the boom of the hall came into play. All of this is before taping was officially allowed, which would come, but not for a few more years.
