All disc transitions are seamless. This can be rearranged to fit on 2 discs.
Known flaws:
- Two short bits of silence occured in Mexicali Blues. It seemed the phantom
supply lost power for some reason. The silence was clipped out, but these
are otherwise unpatched.
- Screaming maniac during Drums > Space > The Other One > Stella Blue, after
which he was dragged away by security.
The only time I taped omni, and a very accurate (perhaps too much in places)
representation of how the show sounded. A good recording of an excellent show,
and possibly good raw material for a multichannel mix.
Enjoy!
