Surpringly good sound given my location. I thought it would be worse but you will not be disappointed by this recording. Just wanted to extend my thanks to those two kind people who sat along side us but who refused to give up one of their two empty seats so my buddy could sit with us. You will probably never see this recording and even if you did, you would not recognize yourselfs by this description of you. May the Karma you give be returned in kind. Hope you all enjoy this recording as much as I do. PLAY IT AS LOUDLY AS YOU CAN!!! Please let me know what you think. And most importantly, share it freely with your loved ones and friends. May those who try to sell or otherwise profit from my recording be cursed with all the bad karma that you justly deserve. This means you Middle Valley, VGP & all you other scum sucking bootleggers who profit from my recordings. We will find you and we will put you out of business. -TA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ d1t01 Message In A Bottle d1t02 Synchronicity II d1t03 Walking On The Moon d1t04 Voices Inside My Head > d1t05 When The World Is Running Down d1t06 Don't Stand So Close To Me d1t07 Driven To Tears d1t08 Truth Hits Everybody d1t09 Bed's Too Big Without You d1t10 Every Little Thing She Does is Magic d2t01 Wrapped Around Your Finger d2t02 De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da d2t03 Invisible Sun d2t04 Walking In Your Footsteps d2t05 Can't Stand Losing You > d2t06 Roxanne (1st Encores) d2t07 King Of Pain > d2t08 So Lonely d2t09 Every Breath You Take (Final Encore) d2t10 Next To You About the long lineage: I'd love to cut out the middle step, but have no idea how to convert the regions from the sound forge file directly to .flac. DItto for the CD architect .cdp files. Knowledgable suggestions as to how to improve this process by cutting out the CD burn and re-upload to the computer are always welcome. This is one of the finer points of this community of ours ... we all learn from each other. Note - when I extract the CD's back to .wav's with EAC I always make sure that there were no errors. Nor has anybody ever complained of any errors in my transfer process thusfar. - ** Thu 02nd Aug, 2007 07:46 GMT length expanded size cdr WAVE probs filename 4:58.30 52637804 --- -- -xx d1t01.flac 6:25.60 68055164 --- -- -xx d1t02.flac 5:45.00 60858044 --- -- -xx d1t03.flac 1:47.15 18910124 --- -- -xx d1t04.flac 6:16.45 66432284 --- -- -xx d1t05.flac 4:42.00 49744844 --- -- -xx d1t06.flac 6:03.45 64139084 --- -- -xx d1t07.flac 3:49.60 40536764 --- -- -xx d1t08.flac 6:15.30 66220604 --- -- -xx d1t09.flac 5:02.30 53343404 --- -- -xx d1t10.flac 6:15.14 66182972 --- -- -xx d2t01.flac 4:52.45 51614684 --- -- -xx d2t02.flac 4:50.45 51261884 --- -- -xx d2t03.flac 4:58.45 52673084 --- -- -xx d2t04.flac 7:51.45 83190284 --- -- -xx d2t05.flac 8:15.45 87423884 --- -- -xx d2t06.flac 5:38.16 59660876 --- -- -xx d2t07.flac 6:51.14 72533372 --- -- -xx d2t08.flac 6:20.30 67102604 --- -- -xx d2t09.flac 5:17.29 55987052 --- -- -xx d2t10.flac 112:17.43 1188508816 B (totals for 20 files, 0.5015 overall compression ratio)
