Notes: From FZShows: 30-Sep 1977, Cobo Hall, Detroit, MI 72 min, Aud, A- Intro, Peaches En Regalia, The Torture Never Stops, Tryin' To Grow A Chin, City Of Tiny Lights, Pound For A Brown, Conehead, Flakes, Big Leg Emma, Envelopes, Disco Boy, Punky's Whips, Dinah-Moe Humm, Camarillo Brillo, Black Napkins Lineage: Audience master->DAT->cassette->HD->SoundForge (editing, speed correction, tracking)->FLAC Frontend A very good audience recording, but sadly the taper seems to have had problems with his deck, and much of the show is missing. There were two major wobbles near the end of side A, and the problems continued at the beginning of side B - all this fixed to near-perfection by our own pitch-bend wizard, Flambay! But six minutes later, at the very beginning of Disco Boy, the tape deck goes haywire, and the recording doesn't resume until mid-Punky's. Sad to miss out on a Wild Love with this sound quality, but many of the other fall '77 highlights are there. Please note the DAT step in the lineage - not sure whether it qualifies as a "true" 1st gen. Special thanks to Flambay for help with the tricky speed correction bits! 01 Flakes intro 02 Peaches En Regalia 03 The Torture Never Stops 04 Tryin' To Grow A Chin 05 City Of Tiny Lights 06 Pound For A Brown 07 Conehead 08 Flakes 09 Big Leg Emma (tf, end missing) 10 Envelopes (beginning missing) 11 Disco Boy (cuts after 15 secs) 12 Punky's Whips (last part only) 13 Dinah-Moe Humm 14 Camarillo Brillo 15 Black Napkins

Notes: 111 minute recording (with sound ranging from B to C- as the battery slowly wears out) patched with the 70 minute A- recording wherever possible.
