(this has been adjusted at least to the point you
won't sprint to the volume control, it could not be
patched with the alternate recorder due to the same
issue on that source)
d.j.mackeck first reached out in 2013 to report that his dad had recorded several Bruce shows between 1978 and 1985 in their hometown of Toronto, as well as cities within spitting distance like Detroit and Buffalo. These shows come from the second batch of masters he was kind enough to ship to JEMS for fresh transfers.
The Toronto shows were recorded on a small portable Aiwa recorder with built-in mic, and while the recording has some quality inconsistencies, for the most part mackeck managed to avoid material audience chatter or noise, yielding a recording that is clear if a bit distant and still listenable. It did require more aggressive mastering then what JEMS typically applies, but the tradeoff felt right as the tape is far more musical now and superior to extant recordings of the show. Samples provided.
Big big thanks to d.j. mackeck and his dad for loaning JEMS their masters and recording the show in the first place. Thanks also to mjk5510 for once again supervising our post-production efforts.
BK for JEMS
