Love Is Blindness [6:11] RECORDED by RL (aka "madelf") SOURCE: SONY WM-D6 + SONY ECM 929 Analogue Master transfer to VHS done by Steve Hendrix VHS HiFI to Digital Transfer by Mike Ziegler for JEMS Archive LINEAGE: Maxell MX-SII-90 (2x) [master] > VHS HIFi > .flac (16/48 ) > [2020] > fre:ac > .wav (16/48 ) > iZotope RX 7 ("De-hum", "De-click", "Spectral Repair" & "Resample" ) > .wav (16/44.1) > Adobe Audition CC (edit & track split) > .wav > Frontend FLAC (7) > .flac NB: I've included edits of Track 08 and Track 09 to allow for a 2CD set. JEMS' NOTES: While JEMS was recording on DAT as early as 1989, many tapers didn't make the leap until the mid '90s. During that period, some turned to VHS HIFi as a way to copy and trade the highest quality copy of an analog master without DAT. This show was obtained by JEMS circa 1993. The lineage is Master Cassette > VHS hifi > FLAC. It is one of hundreds of audio recordings preserved on VHS HIFi in Jared's collection. The best of them were transferred by Mike Ziegler in early 2017 after Jared's death. BK BIGGIRL NOTES: This recording from the JEMS Archive may have been in low circulation in the 90-ies on either tape or CD-R (1st GEN or higher). At least I have an mp3 version of this source dating back to 2005, possibly earlier. There is no information on the lineage whatsoever, only the notation "1A" which suggests it was marked as being Recorder 1. I have been able to locate two possible lineages for this Recorder 1. One is found on the good-old AchtungBootlegs site as "ECM 929 > WM-D6 master" recorded by T.W. Another lineage was found on the no longer available U2depot but "extant" still on artwork found on the U2Gigs bootleg cover page. It reads "D6/959 master > 1st GEN", taped by RL. The version I have on mp3 is at least one generation from the master, so this RL version would be my best guess but I can't be sure at this point. However, the VHS copy of the master from JEMS Archive definitely sounds as an upgrade. I've cleaned it from some electrical VHS "hum" with the RX 7 and ran a mild de-click as well. The "Spectral Repair" was mainly used to remove some bumps and spikes, but I did take out one or two close and loud whistles as well. The audience certainly was hot and intense, but the taper had a great spot keeping the crowd noise at a good distance, whilst capturing the music pleasantly clear.
