Lineage: Philips Mono Portable Recorder -> 1st Gen Master Fe (ferro) Cassette -> Pioneer CT-F1250 (normal bias/no noise reduction/set for Ferro) into an iMac G4 -> Audio Hijack (analog-2-digital conversion) -> .aiff -> Peak4 (track splitting) -> xACT .flac conversion

Disc 2 6 Looking For Love 7 Berlin 8 Men Of Good Fortune 9 Caroline Says I 10 The Kids 11 The Bed 12 Street Hassle 13 The Bells 14 Rock & Roll > Keep Me Hangin' On
QUALITY: This show is a significantly better recording than the Mannheim show I posted. I would rate this as a B/B+. The sound drops out of the right channel a couple times, but this tape is in MUCH better condition than the Mannheim recording was.
As before, I have edited out some unnecessary stuff like long applause, but never did I cut out any of the music. Not a single note. I equalized the channels as best I could and used no noise reduction/filters.
THE SHOW: The Mannheim show had "I'm Sticking With You," but the Hamburg show has a couple pleasant surprises as well. I always liked "Looking for Love." I wonder if they ever laid that down in the studio?!
