- Point Blank: Last 4:30 patched with Recorder 1
- Because The Night: 12 seconds patched at beginning with Recorder 1


Notes from info file:

This show is 100% complete... thanks to "hrubesh" for sending me the recorder 1 tracks used for patching.

We revisit and bring to a conclusion, at least for now, the final multiple recorder show of the Japanese leg of the "Born In The USA Tour". Each show of the Japanese leg have at least 2 documented recorders except the opening night of April 10th.

This share is recorder 2 for the closing night in Tokyo transferred from my 2nd Generation tape.

Recorder 1: JEA Treeservice Fanatic Records Remaster
Recorder 2: 2nd Generation Tape Transfer (mjk5510)

An overall very good capture of a tight, all business show. The first 5 and a half songs are excellent quality, halfway through "Point Blank" the tape cuts off, I've patched the last 4:30 with recorder 1. We return to the recorder 2 tape at the start of the next song, "Working On The Highway", it is clear at this point that the taper is having to hold the mic lower than the opening 5 songs creating a less punchy sound. I suspect a possible security issue having been in that exact situation myself... I have done some very subtle tweaking to coax a bit more punch out of it (sample provided).

Once the second set opens we return to a sound with more punch probably somewhere between the first 5 songs and last 6 songs of the first set.

As with all my shares I wanted to give as much context around the show quality as possible so you can make an informed decision on downloading.

This show will fit snuggly on 2 discs with no music or dialogue missing (to my knowledge).

Enjoy!
