lineage:
WBCN 104.1 FM live broadcast (not pre-recorded) >
Sansui 8 reciever with wire antenna >
bottom of the line cheapest Technics cassette deck ever invented
(at least its heads were just cleaned
and dolby fidelity crusher turned off before concert) >
Maxell XLII 90 minute master cassette >
played on tascam 112 into soundforge (wav) >
flac (sb's aligned) > torrentially yours.
a this and that production.
do not sell this recording.
share freely, losslessly and gaplessly.
Technics made lots of cassette recorders.
every single other one they made was better
than the one that made this recording.
but it's still a master of a 1981 U2 concert.
some of the closing comments come from the rebroadcast
but everything before that comes from the original 1981 live broadcast.
