The Joseph Freeman tape

Joseph Freeman: "I recorded an entire set at Max's (around the same time as Polk's). The tape was recorded on a Sony TCS-124 a portable stereo cassette recorder with an external single stereo mic. The quality of the tape is very good and has never been bootlegged. I may be interested in having this tape surface as a legitimate release".

With mp3 you get a lossy sound and 2" cuts between each track.

The link I posted is providing FLAC. It says that. And the 2 sec. gap has nothing to do with MP3.

For example the Freeman samples are mp3 and for concerts, using various software, I ALWAYS found myself with the 2" gaps but if you have a solution, just let me know.

Wow,great stuff,far better quality than Brigid's tape with Lou's healthy voice,gotta see the light the whole thing...!!!

Thank You...

I usually use EAC to burn CDRs and there is an option to either have a 2 sec gap between tracks or not. It's a user-definable variable. If you forget to "uncheck" it, then you get a 2 sec gap between tracks.
