    Mastering Notes:
    raw wave files sent through Izotope Ozone.
    Parametric curve to compensate tape playback without Dolby B.
    Dynamic compression to increase bass and reduce tape hiss.

    I left the entire Pros and Cons set as one track, which then had the crowd
    cross fade into the encore tracks.

    There was a person about 5ft from the mics who clapped between every song.
    The claps were very loud and annoying.
    I spent days... there were about 500 claps that were
    manually reduced/eliminated, but some still remain.

    Enjoy!

    Comments: A very nice audience recording, very little tape hiss. Source unknown, but very
    clean and unedited. SQ rates an EX-

    Roger absolutely loses it during 'In The Flesh', screaming out his rant at the crowd.
    Absolutely charged, perhaps the best ITF I've ever heard. After 'Pros & Cons', Roger can't
    resist saying "thank you for coming, you've been a very nice audience . . . considering."
    Considering what, Roger?
