Notes: The Police Hotel Diplomat September 29, 1979 New York City, USA WPIX-FM EX stereo off-air cassette master. CONTRAST CLAUSE: This is similar to the original off-air master that is posted at: http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=305471 except that this one now has a 5 second seamless patch from an alternate mono source during the tape flip. END CONTRAST CLAUSE This new version is the complete show with no cuts. The panning from stereo to mono and back during the patch is very smooth and hard to detect exactly even when listening on headphones. (It's at the beginning of Peanuts and you can hear it in one of the samples I'm including). Original lineage: Pioneer 747 receiver > Dokorder cassette deck > original TDK SA tape > transfer and remastering by seriusjoe > flac 8 > tlh > dimesters the world over New info: Dime seed > xACT extraction > Pro Tools (5 second patch at beginning of Peanuts - up to track 8 is unchanged - retracked from track 9 to end on sector boundaries) > AIFF > xACT (Flac level 8 files). Patch source: low gen. off-air FM monophonic reel > Tandberg 9241XD > Macintosh with Digidesign Audiomedia III sound card > Pro Tools. 01 [0:16] DJ intro 02 [7:33] So Lonely 03 [2:22] Truth Hurts Everybody 04 [4:27] Walking On The Moon 05 [4:04] Hole In My Life 06 [2:36] Fallout 07 [5:01] Bring On The Night 08 [4:56] Message In A Bottle 09 [7:01] The Bed's Too Big Without You 10 [2:44] Peanuts 11 [6:25] Roxanne 12 [7:12] Can't Stand Losing You 13 [2:20] Landlord 14 [5:27] Born In The Fifties 15 [4:00] Be My Girl 16 [0:40] DJ comments total time: 67:08 THANKS to Nevinsrip who recorded and seeded the original. Here is the info from his last posting: I seeded this back in 2005. I figured that it was time to start re-seeding many of the shows that I recorded throughout the years. Back in the heydays of FM radio, I lived in Flushing Queens and at the time, I had an FM antennae on my roof that picked up WLIR, WNEW, WPIX, WPLJ and WFUV at their optimum. My equipment was pretty good at the time of these recordings and it's time for me to start sharing what I have again. I probably have 400 or so FM shows. Quite a few of them are from the WLIR Tuesday Night Concert series.
