BONUS TRACK
12 Rosalita (SB Only)
Known Faults:
-Cadillac Ranch: first few notes cut
-Rosalita (Track 07): two audience patches of .55 seconds and 2 minutes
-Rosalita (Track 12): SB only / end cut at 8:39 and end spliced from "Summer Tour '81" / 2:55 total missing (see notes)
Nine songs taken from the soundboard has circulated for many years on Flamingo Records as "Summer Tour '81".
Starting with "Sherry Darling", the Flamingo Records release contains the end of the show. "Rosalita" is cut in two places missing 2:55 seconds in total.
This torrent, coming from my own archives, features one additional song, opening with "Cadillac Ranch" not found on the Flamingo Records release.
This tape version was missing the end of "Rosalita", however, "Rosalita" contains an extra 1:16 before it cuts off that does not appear on the Flamingo Records version.
There are two versions of "Rosalita" included. For Track 07, the first 8:39 comes from my tape copy, again, this is 1:16 longer than the Flamingo Records version. It's then patched with :55 seconds of the audience tape using the JEMS Master capture, we switch back to :38 seconds of soundboard from the Flamingo Records release. After that we switch to another 2:00 of the audience tape and finally finish up with :33 seconds of the Flamingo Records soundboard.
The second version, is only the soundboard with the first 8:39 coming from my tape and the last 1:11 coming from the Flamingo Records release. It contains two splices and is missing 2:55 of music but is all the soundboard that is available combining the two sources.
As far as a quality upgrade, pitch has been corrected as the tape ran fast and I believe it comes down to personal preference, this one contains a bit more low end than the Flamingo version.
