Notes: These reels were lent to the original uploader by Bill B. to transfer.
Bill B's notes:
D.F. and I would coach the Seattle Kingdome video director (N.W.) on songs to be played at upcoming major shows. Basically he was "studying up" on song placement and solos to be expected. Having worked at both the Superdome and in Cleveland, N.W. had friends at other venues. He simply asked a friend working the show in Cleveland to get him a copy of the show and fire it off to us in Seattle. The guy brought in his home deck, walked up to the board, and being on the crew they plugged him in. Just that simple. These reels are a direct copy of the master cassettes done in the early 80’s on a brand new Akai GX-77 reel deck using Maxell XLII tape at 7.5 ips and the rare EE equalization that the tape required. I personally have a better trust in this source than I do in the actual masters now. The masters still exist, but they aren’t going in the mail, and after so many years, I just think that 7.5 ips quarter inch reels are the best way to go. They may never have been played before Weedwacker’s efforts. I kept a second “play” copy on Maxell UD reels for listening. This source is pristine, not one of the bootleg versions, not off crude cassette copies from me in the 80’s. This is the real deal. Thank you Weedwacker for stepping up to make this happen, you and Darrell, and NW, and whoever the guy was that plugged in.

Any idea on how this version compares to the EVSD version of this same show released last year called Maximum Destroyer? That one was pretty clean.

Mark: funny!
M3x: According to the original poster (and I have to go by him as my ears are fairly fried) each used a copy of the same master cassette tape. (The master cassette tape has NEVER been circulated directly). His personal opinion is that the reel copy is a better representation of the original concert (no spatial work / no eq / etc). To my ears they sound quite similar.
If you are a completeist then you should have both.
