September 23, 1972 afternoon show

The Felt Forum

New York City, USA

The Grape's cassette master > 1st gen. mono reel at 7.5 ips speed.

Decent sound quality - check the samples to get an idea of the quality for yourself.

This show was not on the tracker and I thought I would post this version because I downloaded an inferior copy of this source that was lower quality, out of order and with other flaws including unverified lineage.

Transfer: Tandberg 9241XD > Macintosh with DigiDesign AudioMedia III soundcard > Pro Tools (normalization and tracking - No EQ or hiss reduction) > Aiff > xACT (Flac level 8 files with sector boundaries verified).
