Comments:

Around 1991 Tim met Karl Ryan through, he thinks, Relix Magazine, Karl told him that he had never traded wih anyone before. He had got into taping when he met his friend John in college, John had been taping since 1969. and Karl started in 1971.  They became firm friends and went on taping trips together.  Unfortunately John passed away from cancer some years later and at that time all of his masters passed to Karl.

Tim received this show from him and quite a few others from Karl so there is no doubt that this source is a genuine 1st Gen.

Back in December 2015 my friend Alan Bershaw put out a version of this recording and at the time thought that he had borrowed the reel master to transfer. However, after dicussing this with him it is evident that what he had was at best a 1st gen reel and it wasn't in good shape, It was necesary to bake it before a transfer could be made.

This source on the other hand sounds much better, having been transfered from the master way back in 1991 before the ravages of time had done much damage to the true master.


Notes:

- Pitch correction
- It sounds as if there may have been a problem with the original transfer because around 3 minutes 21 seconds  during the
  end of "Watch Her Ride" and the start of "Other Side Of This Life" it was  mostly static.  I have patched this with Alan Bershaw's source.
  I also patched on the last 2:35 of "Ballad Of You Me and Pooneil" which for some unknown reason was missing from Tim's copy.
- The vocals sounded distorted from time to time , I have done what I can to reduce that.
- A number of tracks are clipped because the taper was hitting pause, they fade in
- Level adjustments have been made.
- There is a marked improvement in the sound quality from "Martha" through to the end of the show.


Thanks to Seth Kaplan for carrying out pitch correction.

Thanks to Tim Welch from providing this soure.
