This is my attempt to remaster an old recording of Uris Theater, New York, USA, 7th of May 1974. I have an excellent quality version of this concert, but it is only a 128kbps mp3 and it misses Liar. Some nice lady (Ginger01 ???) shared here a couple of months (years) ago a lossless version, which included Liar, but had much worse sound quality and serious speed / pitch problems, noticable for example on Procession. I took the flacs shared here, decoded them to wavs and opened them in Cool Edit Pro. I did some equalisation to make it sound less bass heavy and corrected the speed where it was possible. The resulting wavs where again encoded to FLAC (level 8). Tracklist : 1. Procession 2. Father To Son 3. Ogre Battle 4. Son And Daughter 5. Liar 6. Keep Yourself Alive 7. Modern Times Rock'n'Roll 8. Big Spender 9. Rock'n'Roll medley Download links : link link link Enjoy and please don't convert to lossy formats. Also if you have a lossless version of the better sounding recording, please share it. |

I don't have the zip files, so you will have to write me the songs which you're missing |
| The Keeper 25.10.2007 10:48 |
4. Son And Daughter 5. Liar |

MERCI BEAUCOUP |

The source is far from perfect, to be sure, but some comparative listening (the original files and the remaster) tells me that you have done a remarkable job of making this quite pleasant to listen to all the same. Thank you! :) |

I'm glad you liked it |
| Bobby_brown 08.01.2008 16:55 |
I can´t believe i´ve missed this the first time. Thanks Pittrek :-) Take care |

Thank you, Pittrek! It would be interesting to listen to one song from your mp3 version. |

Thank you very much pittrek. [img=/images/smiley/msn/wink_smile.gif][/img] Do you know any informations about lineage ??? |

AUD > ? > CD(x) > WAV > remastering in Cool Edit Pro > WAV > FLAC level 8 (Trader's Little Helper) BTW it's nice that after more then 2 years new people discover it and the links still work [img=/images/smiley/msn/teeth_smile.gif][/img] |

This definitely isn't from the LP. That copy sounds much worse. |
| Luko255 07.04.2009 13:08 |
Sir GH and pittrek: thanks for the clarification... [img=/images/smiley/msn/teeth_smile.gif][/img] |

Well, firstly thanks for sharing this it's excellent. But it's actually left me rather upset. I had previously acquired a recording from this concert and the lineage was given to me as AUD > Master > 1st gen Cassette > CDR(x) > WAV > FLAC - sounds good I hear you say? Well yes it does but when listening to your version of this concert something in the back of my head said "this is rather familiar". So I got out TLH and checked the version I had against the fingerprints with your recording and sure enough they are identical. So there you are - someone out there is passing off your hard work as their own 1st gen recording. Nice isn't it? |

Do you know what - that's the most annoying thing. I've been wracking my brains trying to remember where I got the recording from but it was so long ago that I can't honestly remember so I can't even shout at the person I got it from! But anyway - I'm glad to know what the real lineage of this concert is - and to be able to give you the proper credit for what you did in remastering it. Thanks for putting it out there! |

Thanks for sharing and remastering ... Can anybody comment on the sound quality of this low generation, remastered concert. Is it VG+ / B+ or better? |
| Saint Jiub 11.04.2009 11:43 |
I would greatly appreciate it if someone could rate the sound quality. Thanks |
| pittrek 11.04.2009 13:10 |
Bob rated it on his website as B-, I would rate it as "Very good/VG+" |
| The Real Wizard 11.04.2009 17:48 |
Naturally these things are all subjective... but when the bass and drums can't be heard even relatively clearly, I can't give it a B rating. Of course this has nothing to do with your work on the tape. While you did improve it, the tape still is what it is... |
| Saint Jiub 12.04.2009 00:19 |
Thanks very much for the info. |
