For purists, here's an unpatched complete version of source #2 of the show. If you want a complete version of this show with every bit taken from the best sounding version, I advise you to get the other version instead. Source #2 is missing the first three songs, but, in spite of some hiss and waving between channels, it's quite nice sounding, better than source #1. Compared to the Shoebox seed, I edited it, split into tracks, tried to correct the balance between channels (not an easy task and not possible everywhere), removed the overlaps (in "Billy the Mountain", at 15:42 approx.) and crossfaded into mono some sections near the end of side A and beginning of side B, where the audio was only on one of the channels (end of "Sleeping in a Jar", beginning of "Wonderful Wino"). Doctorzap's transfer of Robsam's tapes was quite good, but contained a couple of error/glitches in "Billy the Mountain": these have been patched in the "Frankenstein version" of this show, but have been left alone here. Files 5, 8, 11, 12, 13, 17, 20 and 21 are exactly the same as the ones that were included in the "Frankenstein version" I seeded a few days ago, so if you have that seed, just include them in the folder for this seed. Now if only a complete version of the very good sounding source #3 would surface�
"Billy the Mountain" is very long, but unless I have to include "unpatched tracks" folders, personally, I prefer to keep this kind of pieces in only one file, so I decided against splitting it. If you only want to listen to the "Studebaker Hotch" section, it starts at 23:18".
