Fix Notes:

Light hiss removal using iZotope RX denoiser on whole recording.
Running a little slow.  Speed correction with a factor of 102%.
Tape flip between The Jean Genie and Blackout - change in timbre is already on the tape, before the track split.
Mic hit @ 3:02 after Sense Of Doubt - removed.
Change of timbre just before start of Beauty And The Beast is on the source tape.
Volume drop at the start of Soul Love - boosted as best as I could, but still very wobbly.
Unusual loss of a beat just before Star, suggests that a legacy tape flip was joined at some stage.
Tape flip between Alabama Song and Station To Station - reasonably clean.
Legacy join in crowd noise between Station To Station and Stay - change in timbre.
Tape join between TVC 15 and Rebel Rebel tidied up.
