Recording comments
Predominantly first-generation tape, with small patches from a higher-gen source in disc 1 tracks 1 and 2 only.
I hear strange music in track 8 on disc 1: from 9.00 on (is that Queen?); the track times match though... [donkey]

Recording comments
Notes from torrent:
Notes:
-First live show that Phil Collins sings Supper's Ready
-At the end of the recording, the taper jokes that this has been a "CBC broadcast sponsored by JC Enterprise"
-Seems essentially the same as the Meeksgenesis Edition, which claims to be from a "first-generation tape"
-Meeksgenesis edition has small patches from a higher-gen source on tracks 1 and 2, which were done by AV to cover up errors
introduced during a CD-rip
-the Highland bootleg has errors in the same spot on track 1, but is clean on track 2, so Highland is the "better" source
-Meeksgenesis may actually be sourced from Highland (and not actually be "1st gen"), or at the very least comes from the
same tape transfer
-BURP is also probably from the same tape and has no glitches, but they completely filtered out the high frequency content, and
overamplified it resulting in significant clipping at parts
-there was audio from an entirely different show from a different band tacked onto the end of Firth Of Fifth on these sources,
which I have removed
-Maybe one day a better source of this recording will surface, but what we have here is pretty good I think
-Original artwork from Highland is included - the listed track times obviously do not match this revision
Revision Notes:
-patched from BURP a fraction of a second at the start, and from [35s - 38s] (~3 s total) during Dance On A Volcano
-no crossfades - just precisely placed
-inverted the waveform of the audio < 35 s
-Eliminated the few seconds of repeated material across the original discs between Firth Of Fifth and Entangled
-Phase corrected (varying amounts): typically right channel was leading by a few (like 5) samples
Amplification:
Tracks 1-8: -2 dB
Tracks 9-10: Left -2 dB, Right -1.5 dB
Tracks 11: Left -1 dB, Right -2 dB
Tracks 12-14: Left -1 dB, Right -1 dB
-Changes either aligned with tape breaks or blended in to avoid introducing discontinuities
-There is some minor clipping at a few points that comes from the original audio - because it is so minor, I have not done
any clip fixing
Speed Adjustments:
The speed on the raw audio was very close to correct. The audio started off 0.8% slow, and gradually increased such that by the
start of White Mountain was approximately on pitch. I adjusted the speed of discrete segments in 0.1% intervals to compensate.
The adjustment I made for the last section before White Mountain was +0.3%.
The audio throughout the second disc (Tracks 9-14) was approximately consistent at 0.3% fast. This was corrected.
Normally, I wouldn't bother with such small speed adjustments, but BURP was running at the correct speed for the patched
section, so I figured I might as well fix everything. The speed adjustments were done in MATLAB; everything else in Audacity.
TLH was used to fix SBE.

Recording comments
Listen to the voice of Phil in Supper´s Ready, it´s so close to Gabriel style! [Acadash]
(Continue) This bring me memories when, back on the late seventies, I bought that wonderful double lp "Seconds Out" and during the first listenings I was impressed for the (then) new and very similar voice of Genesis. [Acadash]

Some slight glitches - I suspect these might be on the original Highland discs.
There is a first generation from masters that far exceeds Highland's effort. [MarkBataitis]

Nice performance on this one. Contains my favourite ever performance of Robbery, Assault and Battery. [Jesper Moonen]
