Notes from the Zero II show at The Mystic Theater Nov. 4, 2005, Petaluma CA Recording gear used: Stage mic: Crown SASS P Mk 2 stereo condenser PZM (pressure zone microphone).

Recording & post production by Bob Cogswell, sunauto@pacbell.net FOH engineer: Howard Danchik Guitar: Futoshi Morioka Bass guitar: Liam Hanrahan Keyboards: Melvin Seals Saxophone: Martin Fiero Drums: Greg Anton Vocals: Judge Murphy Vocals: Miss Loretta Set#1 Tear Tags> Horses (judge) Chance In A Million (Judge) Golden Road Forever Is Nowhere (Miss Loretta) Me And The Devil (Melvin) Catalina (Judge) set#2 Primona End Of The World Blues (Judge) Papa Was A Rolling Stone (Judge) Greggs Eggs Years To Come (Miss Loretta) Home On The Range (Judge) Highway 61 (Judge) Little Wing This show was a sort of a bust out for this line-up. Futoshi's playing on this gig broke new ground for him, in my opinion. It had been a long time since I had seen him play. Not since Gregg's Egg's (roughly 2 years ago) in fact. He has been playing a blues gig since then, and his playing on EOWB shows the work. During Golden Road, Futoshi's guitar amp quit, and you can hear him just sort of fade away during a solo. The rest of the band steps up after a short delay, and Futoshi comes back to finish the song. Below are the shntool outputs. The fixed.wav lines refer to the actual existing tracks. The original wavs needing fixing were deleted and the fixed wavs renamed. length expanded size cdr WAVE probs filename 18:44.48 198386540 --- -- --- Zero2 20051104d2t01-fixed.wav 18:44.49 198392336 -b- -e --- Zero2 20051104d2t01.wav 10:46.22 114006188 --- -- --- Zero2 20051104d2t02-fixed.wav 10:46.22 114008548 --- -e --- Zero2 20051104d2t02.wav 10:13.02 108137948 --- -- --- Zero2 20051104d2t03-fixed.wav 10:13.02 108140308 --- -e --- Zero2 20051104d2t03.wav 13:20.01 141122396 --- -- --- Zero2 20051104d2t04-fixed.wav 13:19.74 141122078 -b- -e --- Zero2 20051104d2t04.wav 106:07.70 1123316342 B (totals for 8 files)
