Default Re: Gordon at Massey Hall 1974!

Those punters like Peterbro who do not wish to have to try to separate the low quality all in one file they can download from sugarmegs in order to burn a CD shoud be aware that
The obvious Lighthead known as "wolfsbane" has uploaded a set of higher quality 192KBPS mp3s plus artwork in a rar file to rapidshare and he has a link on his weblog at:-
http://nathansclassicrockmoat.blogsp...onto-1974.html
afte his description he gives download links for three other bootlegs
"You might also like:

And another obvious Lighthead known as "zeppo" has announced the fact on guitars101.com at:-
http://www.guitars101.com/forums/f90...lightfoot+1974
Either way the rapidshare link for Massey 1974 is:-
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RCE00AESFilename:
The file name is GLT74.rar
File description: GLT74
File size: 135.3 MB
Once you have downloaded the rar format compressed archive file (similar to a zipfile) you
have to"unrar" it then use the resultant mp3s to burn your audio CD.
Those of you who have been paying attention to my postings
instead of making fun of themshould be able to remember how I introduced a great freeware program called JZIP
that can most easily unrar these rar files
I also recommended another freeware program (Express Burn) with which it is easily possible to burn a concert CD that is both gapless/continuous and track selectable,
Those whose memory and/or site searching skills are not up to the job can wait while I put a very few finishing touches to two more of my world class fully illustrated tutorials (based on what are already virtually complete intructions on corfid) and upload them I plan to be back with links in a very few days
But as far as this Massey 1974 bootleg goes those who have taken the trouble to read into Wayne's cornucopia should be well aware that this is almost certainly the result of a true "official" (i.e. originally not a bootleg at all) soundboard recording made with the intention of being issued as another live concert album but was aborted after much money had been spent due to the perfectionist Gord being disatisfied with the way it sounded due to a broken fingernail or so the story goes. I really wonder if anybody here can find the evidence of this trivial flaw on the bootleg recording
Also in this 1974 set is another fine rendition (one cannot have too many!!) of Seven Island Suite and three other "rarities" (Tennessee Stud, Partners and Divorce Country Style)
