I'd like to offer this as a vine. FLAC would be easiest, and here's why. There is some really cool artwork involved made from photos taken at the actual concert, and some of the photos are included on the disc also. Have you ever seen Frank with a Telecaster? Neither have I! Anyway, we've vined this show before, but this version sounds much better. I can do audio discs, and include a data disc with the artwork and photos. Please e-me offlist and we'll get this thing going. Below is a cut-and paste from the text file.
Larry Frank Zappa 1973-03-11 Texas Hall UTA Arlington Texas (Gesture of Contempt) (T-34) from the original analog tapes Band Members: Frank Zappa - Jean-Luc Ponty - Bruce Fowler - Ian Underwood - Tom Fowler - Ruth Underwood - George Duke - Ralph Humphrey I'm the guy who recorded this show. I have the original analog cassette tapes of it. Over the years I have traded analog tape copies but until now have never done a digital transfer of it. This is the first and only time it has been digitally transferred from the original analog cassette tapes. The bonus material is from UG at what used to be the Zappa Archives (ZARK). Section B is a little left of center and Row C is the 3rd row from the stage. Mics: Sony ECM 19B > Recorder: Realistic SCT-7 Stereo Cassette Recorder > Tape: Maxell Ultra Dynamic C-90 cassettes the Original Analog Cassette Tapes > Playback Deck: Tascam 130 > Nikko 32 Band EQ > Akai DR16 Digital Hard Disk Recorder > Sony PCM-R500 DAT Recorder > Sony DAT Tape > HHB CDR-800 Compact Disc Recorder > HHB CDR > WAV > SHN I have also done the artwork for this version of this show. Pictures taken the night of the show by D. Knarr. I really have never liked the practice of giving titles to live shows but I understand one of the reasons people do it is to distinguish between different versions of the same show. I felt like I needed to give this one a title due to the other inferior versions that exist. Please keep the artwork and text file, unaltered, together with the SHN's. Disc 1 1.
