 Neil Young w/ The International Harvesters

Lineage: Audience Analogue 1st gen>DAT...DAT>Hard Disk (via Sony DDS tape unit with audio firmware)>Cool Edit 2000 (Resample to 44.1kHz and remove tape flips)>CDR

Notes: I spent some time over Christmas archiving my 1985 International Harvesters Neil Young shows and came across this old favourite - notable for its sound quality (one of the better tapes of the tour), one of the half a dozen or so times the wonderful Interstate was played and a 20min Down By The River. I remember back in the times of snail mail trading that this was listed as the show to get from this tour in an article in the NYAS fanzine Broken Arrow. All in all well worth sharing.

Thanks to the taper.
