When you go to Bluestraveler.net and look up the show archive there is only one show
older than this. This is the ultimate Blues Traveler begining. Being new to the BT
fan group listening to old school is the ultimate joy to me.

Ok this is my first shn so I won't take any offense to any criticism.
E-mail me if you have any suggestions.

I started off with a soundboard 2 gen cassette that was made 5+ years ago.
The sound on the cassette was acceptable, but there were some obvious errors.

1) First track Rock Me Baby was only recorded on right channel (problem from master)
Repaired by copying right track to replace left dead air.
2) In between the two sets there was a drum solo and an a cappella group performed.
The drum solo was most likely done in front of the stage, or on the stage. The
volume is soft at first, but once they get jamming it rocks.
The drum solo was boosted in amplitude during the warm-up (some static resulted).
3) The a cappella group "Notes & Keys" was performing on the left side of the stage.
The amplitude was boosted on the left track and the left track was copied to right.
4) The second song performed by Notes & Keys was cut short by the tape ending.
5) In shntool track 5 & track 8 come up as not being cut on track sectors. Not sure what
this meant or how to fix if it is a problem.

Changed source info per Luke McCormick's notes, who taped the show:

4/13/89 - the barnard tape is Half SBD, half AUD. I used one Nak100 mic,
with the other channel of the D5 plugged into the soundboard. It was an
outdoor show on a grassy field, so the quality of the audience channel
is really good.

Also fixed a few typos and aligned the track timings. I decided not to fix the sector
boundaries mentioned above since they happen during set changeovers.

Since this show was seeded in SHN, with seektables separately and had the
aforementioned SBE's, I thought I'd fix both issues before uploading to archive.org.
Re-encoding and SBE fixes performed with xACT 1.58.
