JustDave's Notes:
Art from Discogs, my scanner is too small for LP art.
Transfer:
LPs cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning system. The album was then treated with D4+ and a Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used prior to LP playback. Large pops/clicks removed manually in Goldwave. Play back was a flat/raw transfer no added bass, treble or EQ.
Sound Quality:
Sound Quality is very good to almost excellent. Almost sounds like a monitor mix except for a moment early in the show where the mic gets covered for a second. Over all a very enjoyable recording that I don't see at The Traders Den, other torrent trackers or blogs.
Noted Flaws:
1. Side Two has a bad flaw at the beginning of "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker" causing loud pops and skips. The section is in the first 18 seconds of the song then plays fine afterward. I tried to ease the loudness of the pops but the skips are still there (but softer). This is the only real flaw in this recording. The flaw looks like little bubbles in the vinyl.
2. Incomplete show...setlist.fm shows a total of 31 songs played. "Eat The Rat" as show starter missing."I Just Want To Have Something To Do", "Too Tough To Die", "Mama's Boy", "Animal Boy", and "Wart Hog" all played between "Glad To See You Go" and "Surfin' Bird" missing.

I am also torrenting this at The Trader's Den which I am happy to say is not closing down. They have found who they need to save things.
I have had this record for some time now but only just got around to finishing the encoding. You actually could mistake this recording to be a monitor mix instead of from the audience. Yes it is in stereo and I do believe a bit of an exlusive for The New JDP. The performance is furious, I know I say this a lot but it is very true this time...Everyone who listens to The Ramones needs this show in their collection!!!!!!
