notes by the taper
I used Cool Edit Pro to remove some low level ground hum that was introduced by the taper when transfering from tape to hard drive. This was relatively easy to do, as there were parts included in the recording that were just blank tape noise. I reduced this noise using just a 12% setting, so as not to overdo it and introduce digital artifacts. Also, added a bit of EQ to
brighten up the recording a bit, and bring Fish's vocals forward a bit more. Again, just a modest amount of EQ used so as not to overdo things. Removed a few occassional pops.

During the tape change, I just faded out and faded back in, as a cross fade didn't sound right. However, there were a couple other tape stops, waiting for encores, and I did cross fade these.

Finally, there was a glitch in the source that I couldn't fix without making it sound worse, so I just left this. It's found in track 5 (3 Boats) at 2:29
