Notes | Tape is evidently the original field recording, done in the quarter-track format. The order of the tracks as recorded appears to follow this sequence (counting from the "top" as played on Side One): Track 1, Track 4, Track 2, Track 3. (In other words, the tape was "flipped" three times.)Note: The first 20 or so secs. of Track 1 appears to be a copy made (at 1 ⅞ ips) from another recording. |
