| Notes: | Lineage: Aud Master > 1st generation cassette > Nakamachi deck > Yamaha CDR burner > CDR > EAC(secure) > ProTools > xACT > FLAC(8) Here is finally the complete version of this show from a December 2005 transfer from first gen cassettes held by the taper. The master cassettes are gone. A 90-minute version of this show has circulated for some time, but this is 30 minutes longer. In general this is a perfectly fine average quality recording, but just so you know the first two tracks are lower quality than most of the rest. The end of The Losing End and the beginning of second TTN are lesser quality than the middle part of the show. 22 minutes into the second TTN there is 3-minute portion where the volume drops significantly. Normally I'd just raise the volume of something like that, but it really didn't help much so I just left it as is. After the 3 minute portion the sound improves again. The only thing I did to the recording was clean up some of the cuts and adjust the pitch slightly (it ran a bit fast). Don't let all of that get in the way though. This is a great show similar to the TTN shows in England a week prior. Historic stuff with some great between song raps and a 35 minute TTN! Thanks go out to the taper for his efforts 33 years ago as well as with the recent transfer. | |||||

| Notes: | Notes from text file: Firstly - this is an incomplete recording of this show. According to the Sugar Mountain site four other numbers were performed: Needle & The Damage Done; I Believe In You; Cinnamon Girl and Cowgirl In The Sand. In all my years of tape collecting I have never encountered a complete version of this show - if anyone has the missing tracks an additional post would be very welcome (a job for Rainer or Axeman perhaps?) On the plus side - this is a brilliant show featuring the infamous - and very strange - 34 minute second reading of Tonight's The Night. A Neil Young must-hear. Sound quality is what you might expect from a 32 year old audience tape - still very enjoyable to these ears. | |||||

| Notes: | This is the legendary 11/20/73 Neil show with the Santa Monica Flyers (missing 4 songs), bookended with lots of extra material, put together by Greg McGarvey, and cleaned up by Mr. Clean. The audio version fits on 3 discs, and the SHN version is on 2 discs. All three discs of the audio version are over 74-minutes long. artwork is at: http://home.comcast.net/~emcgarvey01/cover.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~emcgarvey01/back1.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~emcgarvey01/back2.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~emcgarvey01/back3.jpg Here are Greg's notes: This is a little collection I made for myself, based on the idea of squeezing the highlights of the eight Tonight's The Night shows I had in my collection down to two or three discs. After running over those sixteen CDs several times with my car, I glued the shards back together and, voil?! In addition to an endless version of "Tonight's The Night" (thirty-six minutes in length, including one point where the taper spends an unknown length of time changing or flipping his tape), the Chicago show has great versions of all the other songs which were played. Therefore, I decided to hang onto this show and add dialogue and versions of songs which were either not played at the show, or not available on the recording of the show that I had (Chicago Delirium). Disc one actually STARTS with a batch of bonus tracks (dialogue, and three songs which were played near the beginning of their respective sets, earlier that month). By placing them in this sequence, I was able to fill up disc one well, without breaking up the flow of the Chicago show (which, keep in mind, includes a thirty-six minute track). While this collection DOES include at least one version of every song known to have been played on the tour, according to the Sugar Mountain database (aside from "Tell Me Why," of which there is no recording known to be circulating), I don't consider this a *Tour Compilation*, as there are a handful of shows which I haven't heard, which likely include entertaining dialogue and perhaps superior versions of songs. Therefore, I consider this an "open source" compilation, and invite anyone to expand it or use it as a basis for a real, live, Tour Compilation. A friend of mine has obtained a CD transfer of a complete, better-sounding tape of the show (perhaps a lower generation version of the one included here), but his copy came out poorly and is unlistenable. His source has not responded to his request for a clean copy. So, be aware that a better recording of the Chicago portion of this compilation could surface. Shakey readers will note that most of the Tonight's The Night tour performances and hijinx described in Mr. McDonough's book are featured on this collection. The last version of "Tonight's The Night" (from the Bristol show) may have been dubbed via an open air microphone, which might explain the noise somewhere around the 11:00 point (armpit fart?!?) and the loud, drunken singing during the beginning of the performance. My theory is that these particular drunken Brits were recorded while they, or their friend, was dubbing the tape. As startling as they are, I decided to include this version of the song because of the intensity of the performance (Neil's and the band's, that is) (described in depth in Shakey) - and because drunken Brits aren't necessarily out-of-place on a Tonight's The Night tour recording. All selections recorded in Miami Beach except where indicated.

Neil arrived very late for the show and didn't come on until almost 1.5 hours after the scheduled start time. He came in wearing an Andy Frain (the usher company contracted by Chicago theaters) coat and apologized for his tardiness. He proceded to put on a very rambling show with a lot of audience chatter. A memorable night (well most if it is memorable)." Here are Mr. Clean's notes on non-digital glitches in the collection: Disc 1 02 Dialogue (11/4/73) - has some odd light noises, sounds like tape recorder noise 06 Albuquerque [includes ?Roll Out The Barrel?] (11/3/73) - there?s a non-digital thump around 3:40 09 Don't Be Denied (11/20/73) - has recorder problems (cuts in & out) until about 0:57 17 Flying On The Ground Is Wrong (11/20/73) (cut) 20 The Losing End (11/20/73) (partial-ending only) Disc 2 01 Tonight's The Night (11/20/73) - This track is now 34:52; there was about 29 seconds of very bad tape or excessive noise from someone handling tape recorder between 21:45-22:14, which was followed by a splice with what sounds like a different & poorer quality tape source around 22:14. The bad portion was cut out and re-spliced around the 21:45 mark during a pretty intense guitar solo. It?s not perfect, but it is better than it was. It?s probably more noticeable because of the different tape quality than the actual blending of the splice. Disc 3 02 Tonight's The Night (11/4/73) (cut) - there is noise for a second or two at the end, from the recorder being shut off. 10 Cowgirl In The Sand (11/5/73) - sounds like a different source (possibly vinyl) has been splice in between 7:38-11:37 (there is light surface noise/static noticeable during this portion). 11 Tonight's The Night (11/4/73) - this is not a very good sound quality recording; it?s pretty distant sounding and has a lot of hiss & audience noise; there is especially a lot of noise from someone messing with the recorder between 12:30-13:05; there is also noise the last couple of seconds at the end from the recorder being shut off. Special thanks to Greg for putting together this excellent collection, and Mr. Clean for cleaning this up as much as possible. Setlist: disc one 01. dialogue (11/3/73) 02. dialogue (11/4/73) 03.
