OU notes: Pre-FM feed from WLIR-FM recording truck. All stage mics wired to air mix soundboard in recording truck to Maxell XLII cassette (no dolby) on a (then brand spankin' new) Nakamichi 550 cassette machine.
To computer (23 years later) via: cr7a Nakamichi cassette (with azmuth adjust) to SBM1 Sony Super Bit Mapper A>D converter to digi in on Linx-one studio card (spdif).
Recorded in Soundforge and mastered with CD architect to CD to SHN.
My cassettes have held up over the years better than the master reels of these shows. The master 1/4" reels (recorded on Ampex 456 grand master tape)
would need to be literally "baked" in order to squeeze out one final play as the oxide flakes off the tape!

Thanks for the John Prine!!! I saw him at W&L University this same year. I have many fond memories from listening to him in my high school years. Can't wait to hear this vintage material!

I booked Prine at my college for this tour and to this day it is one of my favorites. Can't wait to hear this! His band on this tour was top-notch. A guy with the last name of Bush (no not Sam) was his guitarist.
John came to an after-show party and was quite friendly.
During "Saddle In The Rain" I noticed and extra verse and later when talking to Prine about it he wrote the lyrics down and autographed them to me. I still have that paper 30 some years later. Thanks!
