Pink Floyd: Boston 1973 (Joe Maloney's Recording Remastered) FLAC

out-booklet (2)
(Maloney > KRW_CO > TomP Remaster)
BOSTON MUSIC HALL
BOSTON, MA
1973-03-14
Analog Master > WAV > FLAC
Contrast clause:
transfer from the original Maloney Master in 2007:
Changes made (Nero 8)
- Converted to true mono, using better sounding right channel (disk 1) and left channel (disk 2)
- Fixed the tape flip at 10:27 on Track03 seamlessly joined original Track04 (at 10.27 if you're interested)
- Fixed the rough transition between tracks 04 & 05
- Fixed the applause cut between tracks 13 & 14
- Fixed more than 2000 volume fluctuations
- Very slight EQ, +1dB bass & +2dB treble, much less than you can do with amp tone controls
- Added flac tags for digital streamer replay, note altering files in any way will destroy these
- Minor re-tracking

Quality: Worth an "historic" A+ as (IMHO) possibly the best sounding recording from 1973
OU Notes: The PRRP from the 2005 rip remaster was recently posted on Dime and I was surprised it sounded inferior compared to the raw new 2007 rip. PRRP omitted removed the Dime info credit plus crucially the fact that the recording is mono so the only audio information they were remastering.
A with many old recordings on this tape deck, the left and right channels extracted on a stereo deck sound slightly different, so I've restored it back to true mono using the better sounding of the channels (right on CD1 and left on CD2) and then fixed the constantly varying volume level plus a few other fixes.

I have the Pink Moon version: Carefully Obscured Sun Echoes Dark Moon Days(picked it up here a while back). Is there a good reason(s) to have this one as well? I'm tempted to just because its a transfer of Malone's master, but for all I know so is the one I have. I'm more of a Zep hoarder, so an informed opinion would be appreciated.

This is a remaster of Maloney's master. Remasters do not suit everyone's tastes but if the info on the post intriques you then I think that you should try it out...

Is there anything better than Floyd Friday? Not likely. I'm definitely picking this one up, as I'm always looking to improve on shows I've already got.

/sorry if this shows up twice, my Internet has been acting funky lately
