Processing:

No edits. Bit-perfect transfers from masters.
Sets split using wavbreaker 0.11
FLAC encoded and tagged using flac/metaflac 1.3.2


Notes:

Noticeable crowd noise in many places.

I'm not going to attempt to track-split this. Even if I could find clean
breaks between songs, they flow one into the next. And judging by the album,
half the songs would be name "And Furthermore".

Enjoy it the way it was performed, as full seamless sets of improv.

At around 25 minutes into set 1, I hear Miles Davis's "It's About That Time". I'm not
that good at identifying Jazz, I was just lucky enough to have listened it the day
before I did the transfer and recognized it. I think a friend of mine (Gary?)
may have said something like that at the show, but it didn't mean anything to me
all those years ago.

Legend says these two shows were the last two shows at the Academy before it was
closed down.
