Seeded by the Green Mountain Bros. at bt.etree.org, July 2007.

Comments:
- High pitched whine @ 15600 KHz was attenuated using Waves Q10 Supernotch on 24/96 fileset.
- Intermittently before the start of several tracks, there is a stage-amplifier related buzzing that is faded up/down. 
- Reel flip during "Wharf Rat" smoothed to a nearly seamless state with a 4 measure loop and crossfade.

brief low-level crackle, poss bad mic; Wharf Rat ~30 sec section of analog
tape damage leading to a cut during the song. There is an illegal bootleg
available that apparently has no cut in Wharf Rat, but the cut has been
edited out and the song is about 30 sec shorter than on the Betty reel.
No EQ has been performed. You hear what is on the Betty reels.; <b>note</b> md5s listed here were taken from gdlive.com, 1/2/01- presumably from the same 7/99 shn set
