For this show there were 2 sources available:
The commonly circulating version comes from a video but was very hissy and
saturated; a new rip has been done and a very good result came out (called
source #1).
Source #2 has a good sound but it’s lossy (very compressed), with unknown lineage.
Therefore, it was decided to offer 2 versions:
Vol 05a corresponds to a mix from both sources to get the most complete
recording (using in priority the reworked source #1) which is the one reviewed
here and Vol 05b corresponds to a merge from both sources to have a more
spacious sound.
As said before at first the video
was ripped and edited, then the recording was de-clicked and the channels
rebalanced (+20% to the right channel). To complete the recording source # 2
was used.
In
detail on Disc Two Catfish Blues, the Muddy Waters song performed by Jimmie
Wood comes from source #2. In this show we get a long and torrid version of
Shake Your Hips.
