| Recorded at the Earls Court Exhibition Hall, London, UK. Great audience recording. From the info file: Pink Floyd 1980-08-07 Earls Court, Recorder 2 (24bit/96kHz) Pink Floyd Earls Court Exhibition Hall, London, England 7 August 1980 Lineage: Maxell XLII cassettes x 2 (unknown) > *Technics RS-B965-M > Focusrite Saffire Pro 14 > Audacity 1.3 > FLAC (24bit/96kHz) xACT used to create FFP and MD5 *The Technics RS-B965-M is a modified deck - for details see the Tapeheads.net forum 01 Side A - MC introduction to One Of My Turns 02 Side B - One Of My Turns to In The Flesh 03 Side C - Run Like Hell to Outside The Wall Current total running time: 1 hr 52 mins 30 secs Kbrubaker's tapes are a good listen and the taper seems to have been particularly well positioned to capture the sound effects. I expect the music could be quite easily pieced back together to remove duplicated content and have not taken on the task myself as I think various Yeeshkul members would do it better. The output from the channels on the cassettes varies so I made compensating adjustments to the gain on the FSP14 at the commencement of each side. Side A was the quietest of the three and was stronger to the right. Side B was stronger to the left and the wall falling on Side C took the meters on the Technics well into the red. There's hiss but it's not distracting and I found the stereo separation to be good on headphones. The highlight for me is when shortly before Run Like Hell Roger announces that the band are going to 'play something for all you disco fans' and the crowd boos.
