JustDave's Notes:
- As always a big Thank You to my partners in The Collective Of Live Music for the help and inspiration.
Known Faults:
- When I initially "auditioned" the albums the grooves on side one were so dirty the needle just slid across the LP like the anti-skid was off. After the cleaning ritual I go through for each album, the set played and looked near mint.
- The only bad point was 2 spots during Segment 2 where the album skipped. See editing notes.
- 2 very small scratches on Side 2 Segment 2, very easy to over look, caused the above problem.
Recording Notes:
- There is a locked groove show promo at the end of Side 4, which has been encoded.
- Show is hosted but the host never identifies himself.
Editing Notes:
- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LP prior to playback.
- A carbon fiber record brush, then a felt disc cleaner was used on the record prior to playback.
- Records hand cleaned with Record Research Lab Super Record Wash before playback.
- LP cleaned with the HumminGuru Ultrasonic Vinyl Record Cleaning System prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable balanced: Needle Tracking, Azimuth, Pressure & Antiskid Dialed In: Soundcard stereo field maximized: Goldwave always set to record while filtering any offset.
- Recording and all editing done in 24bit/96khz.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Both manually de-clicked and some Pop Fix used depending on what got the best result, although not a lot of clicks and pops needed fixing since this was on of the best vinyls I have encoded in a while.
- There was 2 spots during Segment 2 where the album skipped. One during "Dark Star" and one during "Barrel Of Pain". I had to re-record Segment 2 again. To get the segment to not skip I had to adjust my anti-skid pressure on the fly. To 2.5 during "Dark Star" then back to 1.5 during "Barrel Of Pain". It took about 5 or 6 tries to get it right and to not make a bump noise with my hand when touching the turntable.
Other Notes:
- Westwood One also released this concert under there Westwood One Concerts & Specials "Pop Concert Series". I have that album somewhere but can not locate it to re-encode or get the show number of it. I do have an encoding with the commercials and voice overs edited out.
- The 2 releases were almost identicle except for the commercials, none of the song edits are different and the running order is the same.
- Show identified as Universal Amphitheatre, Los Angeles, California, November 28, 1982 by comparing the Mike Millard audience recording of the show. Song introductions and performances match.
- Both "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" and "You Don't Have To Cry" were written by Stephen Stills for his then girlfriend singer Judy Collins. Both were written about their relationship ending.
- "Dark Star" was written by Stephen Stills for Joan Baez, with whom Stills was having an affair.
- George "Chocolate" Perry and Joe Vitale are known for also being long serving members of Joe Walsh's recording and touring bands.
