December 16th, 1984(audience tape - alternate source)
Atlanta, GA
The Omni

The circulating source was uploaded twice by Ivan. His second upload had an infill for 3 missing tracks. Those tracks were taken from this alternate source which otherwise is not in general circulation. This source is much more complete.

Tapes are of unknown generation from UK Record Fairs. Quality is quite reasonable/listenable but not great. There is substantial tape hiss and some recording breakup towards the end of Highway Patrolman. The breakup also causes occasional minor instability on other tracks throughout the show. The speed is faster than the circulating source. Based on checks against other shows around the date I suspect the circulating source is closer to the correct speed. This source complements the circulating version which has its own issues.

I have 2 sets of tapes for this source which between them cover the show quite well due to a different track configuation for each set. This upload is largely taken from the first set of tapes which was a little easier to compile but required Darlington County from the second set of tapes. There are some infills from the second set for tape ends plus two from the circulating source. I kept this as close to a raw transfer as possible except for channel balancing so no processing other than volume adjustments, file conversion/splitting and infills. I am working on a second version with speed adjustment and other fixes as an audio editing project but decided to upload this "best of raw" version as an interim 31 years on anniversary.

Thanks to mjk5510 for checking his copy of this source. His copy is also hissy and runs faster than mine with the same breakup and some pitch instability on Highway Patrolman.

Also thanks to hrubesh for providing me with the earlier upload of the circulating source and to Ivan for making them available in the first place.
