Notes:
d1 t04: There is a cut during the applause before d1t05 starts.
d2 t01: A few seconds of music might be missing at the start. There is a cut at 8:15.360 with 0:09 of music missing. Taper's batteries are gradually running out, leading to increasing distortions and a flutter effect. Pitch remains largely unaffected.
d2 t02: Distortions and flutter remains until 8:02.297 where there is a cut with 0:11 of music missing. After that, the recording continues with fresh batteries.

Source B is the most complete source and covers the whole show. However, it has two cuts and a serious issue with battery power during set 2 (see notes above). All of these issues are not there in source C, which lacks about 30 minutes of music in set 1 and 2:43 at the start of set 2. The recording is quite good for an aud of the period. Reggie Lucas's guitar is a bit dominant in the mix.
add.edits.plaz:
- smoothed out gain fluctuations near start of track 2
- balanced channels
- repaired clicks, pops and drop outs
- clipped and/or attenuated close applasue
