26-Oct 1973, Armadillo World Headquarters, Austin, TX
80 min, SBD, A+
Cosmik Debris, Inca Roads, Pygmy Twylyte, Idiot Bastard Son, Cheepnis, Big Swifty, San Clemente Magnetic Deviation (world premiere of Dickie's Such An Asshole), Farther Oblivion, Son Of Mr Green Genes/King Kong/Chunga's Revenge

this is a low generation clone, possibly 2nd, maybe 3rd gen. Thanks to Charles Ulrich for supplying the disc.
We are still waiting for MC but in the meantime those who missed any of the four or five recent seedings of this will enjoy the show.
Total time here is 79:38 with 10 tracks altogether.

Lineage: CDR (2nd gen?) -> SoundForge 6.0 (extraction) -> WaveLab (tracking) -> FlacFrontend (level 8)

01 Tunning
02 Cosmik Debris
03 Inca Roads
04 Pygmy Twylyte
05 The Idiot Bastard Son
06 Cheepnis
07 Big Swifty
08 Dickie's Such An Asshole*
09 Farther Oblivion
10 The Mr. Green Genes Medley**


* the world premiere was of course announced as San Clemente Magnetic Deviation but I chose its accepted title.
** I've taken the liberty to alter the title only because the full one may have too many characters for some players.
The medley consists of Son Of Mr Green Genes/King Kong/Chunga's Revenge (plus the Dickie's Such An Asshole reprise).

Also a short note on tracking. I've made some slight adjustments. First, on the CDR all tracks begin with a tiny little gap of 0.008 second (=a tiny click).
I've managed to get rid of those. Second, all track markers are placed at the beginning of music. This works in some cases but no in all.
For example, it makes more sense to start Dickie's Such An Asshole earlier, when FZ announces the premiere and tells about the song.
In some other cases, I moved the markers slightly to include counting off (as it makes less sense to have FZ saying "okay, one two three" at the end of the preceding track).
These, I hope, should pose no major uprisings in the community.
