ambience, so you might technically call this a matrix)

Notes: I know for a fact that there were exactly two DAT decks
patched out of the soundboard at this show. One belonged to a
friend of mine (I was still taping analog at the time) and as it
was her first time taping, she ran out of tape before the end of
the show. Thus the DATs I sourced this from are the only complete
digital recording of the show (save whatever Bruce might have in
his private stash) so the gap in the source DATs (a tape switch)
during Harbor Lights will be found on all tapes. The gap knocked
out a significant chunk of the first verse. So, I decided I got
the smoothest listening experience by simply ditching the first
verse altogether, and made the smoothest sounding splice I could
between the intro and the second verse. There is also some dead
air missing between Sad Moon and Rainbow's Cadillac and between
Every Little Kiss and Spider Fingers so I added fades, and I took
out a little dead air before the encores.
