Notes:
This is a mono recording. Talk about your heart sinking when you see one channel is not working. This was the mic cable. You so abuse these things bringing them into shows. The other channel was fine throughout. So I copied the one channel (right) to the left and added 100th second delay. I was not happy with how this turned out. I was starting to learn that maybe 16th row at this place was the way to go. I did not blast this on my best stereo. I tried. No joy. I did though fix that mic cable first thing in the morning. :) I am sure you will enjoy just hearing it. I still need to archive them whether I enjoy them or not. Enjoy RB

Understand that all this archiving that is recorded in 24b/192khz is for my own use. It is the best sound! Sharing it in cd format is lossy. If you really enjoy these archives get them at this resolution despite the file size. Down the road you will not be sorry. Is this a nice enough way to say it?

***Everything I do for my stereo room and gear is carefully chosen for the finest of quality control. This means A to B comparisons for EVERYTHING! I leave no stone unturned. I decide if what I do will end up being a more musical experience and not the opposite like more processed sounding. I split hairs!! I have learned what is more musical from all the decades of listening to differences. Stereo and audio gear is not nearly as subjective as people make it out to be. It is either more musical or more processed sounding at the end of the day. One more thing I learned, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THE SAME! Practically the same yes! The same, NO! So with this all said…..I thank all the people here for the great compliments since I came here in 2006. It means a lot to me after decades of sleepless nights and stressful days carrying in top shelve equipment every time out!***
