shared by Julsay on thetradersden.org on October 22, 2020.

Additional lineage 2023: I've retracked the entire show to separate the lengthy talk/song introductions from the music itself. FLAC files were decoded to .wav using Trader's Little Helper, tracks were joined using Audacity, split using CDWave editor, and re-encoded to FLAC (level 8) using Trader's Little Helper.

* NOTE: At the same time as the early show recording, Julsay also uploaded what was labeled as the recording of the late show. Unfortunately the recording of the late show which Julsay uploaded was *identical* to the recording of the early show (through what is now Track 14). The *only* non-duplicated tracks were the final talk segment, and the closer "Blues for Snake." I've included that bit of non-duplicated audio from the late show as a "bonus" here.
