Transfer notes from Capt Skipper:-
"Well, after about a year of it I've finally finished up the new updated 9/16/71.
The source is from the original John DuBois recording of the Warehouse show in New Orleans. John told me on the phone that the tape deck used for the new transfer is a Sony TC 355, on which he re-aligned the play heads and added an additional potentiometer to control the tape speed, due to linear speed ups and slowdowns on the original tape. This source is the 3rd transfer John has done of this superb show, and his best effort yet as far as I'm concerned.
The original deck used for recording the show was hidden off to the side of the stage & the AKG Dynamic vocal microphones were hidden (not hanging) in the rafters. According to John, the silent gap in the Whipping Post was not necessarily due to the recorder running out of tape, but rather when he actually had the opportunity to get to the tape deck undetected, to flip the tape to side 2. The Whipping Post silent gap has again been patched, as in my other remaster of it, although I like this patch better. My apologies to the "purist collectors" for repairing the gap.
Along with the normal mastering procedures a great deal of the time spent on this project was aimed at trying to bring up Gregg's vocals, that were low in the original recording. I feel I was successful bringing the vocal presence up to some extent & hope the traders enjoy this updated remaster (which, by the way, probably wont be the last effort on this great recording by John DuBois).
Many thanks to John for having the foresight to record this and I thank John for the opportunity to work on his show).
Capt Skipper"
