JustDave's Notes:- A Big Thank You to Sam Elliot's Mustache for sending more of his vinyl to be encoded.
- A huge thank you to Bill Minkin for being a large part of my youth hosting the Biscuit, Rest In Peace.
Recording Notes:- There was no test tone at the beginning of the show, kind of rare but I have seen it before.
- There are 2 locked groove Show Promo Beds with voiceovers from Bill Minkin, one with Blackfoot music the other with Triumph music, at the end of Side A. They have been encoded and moved to the end of the program.
Known Flaws:- Some minor vinyl fuzz at the very beginning of "Gimme, Gimme, Gimme".
Editing Notes:- A Zerostat Positive Ion gun was used on LPs prior to playback.
- A carbon fiber record brush, then a microfiber disc cleaner was used on the records 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 using distilled water prior to playback.
- Raw transfer: EQ off, treble and bass levels set at +/- zero for most accurate sound of LP.
- Turntable & tone arm balanced: Needle Tracking & Azimuth set: Needle Pressure & Antiskid digitaly set:
- Computer Soundcard stereo field maximized.
- Goldwave set to record while filtering any DC Offset.
- Recording and all editing done in 24bit/96khz.
- Preservation being key the show is encoded complete with commercials and voiceovers.
- Declicked manually and some noise reduction used depending on what best served the situation.
- Raised the volume of the commercials to match that of the music and voice overs.
- A rumble filter with an initial cut off of 50khz and a static steepness of 2 was used to lessen the needle noise on the commercials due to having to raise the volume to match that of the music and voice overs.
Other Notes:- As a kid growing up in Detroit I looked forward to my summer trips to my cousin's house in Ypsilanti Michigan, a suburb near Ann Arbor. We used to bike ride to Ann Arbor and visit Al Nally's Music Store where I would by 8-track tapes. Al Nally's store had a studio in the basement where Blackfoot recorded Strkes. One summer in the store we heard music coming from the basement while browsing tapes. I asked the guy behind the counter who was playing downstairs and he hands me a Blackfoot Strikes 8-track and says "These guys". We listened a little longer and I bought Blackfoot Strikes and Blackfoot's Flying High as well. That's how I became a Blackfoot fan.
- Blackfoot was so named due to the Native American Heratige of 3 members of it's original line Rickey Medlocke is a mix of Lakota Sioux and Blackfoot on his father's side, Creek, Cherokee and Scots Irish on his mother's side: Greg "Two Wolf" Walker is Eastern Creek: Jackson Spires is French and Cherokee on his fater's side and Cherokee on his mother's side: Charlie Hargrett is the only original member not to be of Native American Desent.
- I find it odd that King Biscuit chose 3 songs by Triumph that were all sang by Gil Moore.
- The cue sheet lists an "Encore Medley" for Triumph but that is just what they called the ending of "Nature's Child"
