Notes

iZotope RX denoiser to remove hiss.
Volume reshaping throughout

Ziggy Stardust, some dodgy bits on first 20 seconds or so of left channel.  Copied from right channel.
Small break between Song For Bob Dylan and Changes.  Removed.
Thunk during guitar chord just before Starman removed.
Tape flip between Space Oddity and Amsterdam - edited together.
Someone talks over the left channel (not at gig, after the event), in applause between Space Oddity and Amsterdam, so right channel copied over.  Four small gaps in applause also removed.
Strange repeat bit at 58 seconds in Amsterdam, removed.
Gap between Andy Warhol and I Feel Free removed.
Moonage Daydream 2:59-3:11 left channel depressed - copied right channel over to compensate.
Some swirly hiss, briefly, after this repair, that can't be accessed to remove.
Tiny gap in crowd noise before Suffragette City removed.
Messy bit (with some duplication) with gap @ 3:01 in Suffragette City removed.
Gap in crowd noise after Suffragette City removed.

Seven or eight instances of strange sound a little like a camera shutter over the music - Goldwave Pop/Click tool on default setting used - mitigates if not completely removing the sound.
Sector boundary errors resolved using TLH.
