"Platinum Crackers"

This is a "matrix" of the two recorders from this show.
The "Platinum Edition" (Fireman's 5) was combined with
"Cracked Crackers" by Seige72, and his notes are below.

Platinum Lineage:
Audience Master Reel > DAT (x1) > Sony DTC-A7 > Optical >
SoundBlaster > Cool Edit Pro 2.0 > 2 wav files > Soundforge >
CDWave > flac frontend (level 7, align sector boundaries)> flac

Cracked Crackers Lineage:
cass[low]>LP>remaster>CDR(?)>flac

seige72 notes:
It was a challenge (as these always are), but I think it turned out pretty well.
I used 'Cracked Crackers' to fill the cut in Any Colour through the beginning
of BD, then again between numbers, sometimes restoring the missing first
second or two of a tune (OoTD, ASoS in particular). I also slowed down the
Fireman's Tapes source and made sure the pitch was the same before blending
the two together at each point. Some volume adjustment was done as well,
specifically boosting the FT source and reducing CC, although it's tough to
get such different-sounding recordings to sound the same volume-wise.
