201 You Wear It So Well
202 Claim To Fame
203 Walk On The Wild Side
204 Coney Island Baby
Another torrent of this a while back featured a remix, and a rough version of Coney Island Baby as far as I recall.
This torrent is a straight transfer of some of the CD tracks, with some minor tweaks on the rougher ones,
and Coney Island Baby from the Super Golden Radio Shows CD of this gig, while not quite as pristine as the
Claim to Fame CD I used for the rest, still nice quality.
The stereo tracks (1-5 in particular) on the Claim to Fame CD, to my ears, have a lovely warm and vibrant
sound that need no tweaking or adjusting so they are a straight transfer, bar a reduction in gain to try
to get the match to close to the levels of tracks 6-8.
The mono tracks 6,7,8 were also from the Claim to Fame but I did various things in Audacity.
Track 9, You Wear it So Well is in beautiful stereo, but a little tuning was done to reduce the sound of some radio interference.
I'll point out now that I don't always keep precise notes on tweaks, as trial and error is involved and it takes
enough time doing the work let alone documenting something that I am doing for myself and simply choosing
to share. The bottom line is I have carried out tweaks that sound better on the slightly rougher tracks
to my ears, maybe they will to yours too, maybe not.
I have left the fade outs between tracks as I know from bitter experience that conversion to FLAC sometimes
cuts a second out here and there, even if I have done track splitting in CD Wave (ie ensuring sector
boundaries are maintained)...so shortening the already reasonably tight gap between the songs did not
seem worth the risk.
