Frank Zappa: Manchester 1979 (Soundboard) FLAC *Post #100 for January!

12-Feb 1979, Apollo Theater, Manchester, England
133 min, SBD, A+
150 min, Aud, B+
This version: 149:00 min, SBD/Aud, A+/B+
Lineage: SBD->?->CDR->EAC->SoundForge (retracking)->FLAC Frontend

The SBD is used up through 8:58 into Pound For A Brown, from there on it's from an Aud tape of unknown generation, with a whole lot of compression on it. Throughout the board recording, the levels are very high, and clipped peaks are in abundance. Strangely enough, I'm not sure this has harmed the sound quality, which is among the best you'll ever hear on a Zappa boot. This version doesn't have any of the problems that previously circulating copies had.
