I took the missing part from the CD bootleg "Back in New York" and inserted into the right place. The sound is different so you'll probably notice it. I was thinking to take the missing part from the vinyl bootleg "Live - Caught in the act", which should be taken from the pre-FM reels, but it is mono, so the sound change would have been even more noticeable. - 'Can't stand losing you' is taken from another tape with higher generation, so the sound is not as good as the rest of the tape. This because the rest is taken from a subsequent re-broadcast of the show done by WNEW-FM ("The time machine" at the beginning), but they cut out the song from the re-broadcast. CSLY is taken from the original broadcast. To confirm, the CD bootleg "Back in New York" is missing the same song. This was already on my tape, I just amplified the CSLY part by 1.1 dB to mach the overall sound level. This show does not fit onto a single CDR by slightly less than 20 seconds. But I did not added fades, so if you want you can join the two discs, then cut the speakers' intro at the beginning and then it will fit onto a single 80 mins CDR. Probably you need to do the cut at a CD sector boundary, or to use shntool afterwards to eventually fix any SBE that could have been introduced during this process.
