AUD (shnid=128505):

"Only surviving copy, first generation safety tape transferred on a Nakamichi CR-7A"


"Mason B. Taylor was a taper from Chicago that recorded concerts by many bands in the Chicagoland area and on Dead tours. He used a Nakamichi 550 with Nakamichi 300 mics with shotgun capsules for most of his earlier recordings. In later years he used Sony D-5 and Sony D-3 cassette recorders with Nakamichi 300 mics.

Mason captured spectacular musical moments and loved to share them with his closest friends. In honor of Mason and all the love he put into his recordings we are now able to share these moments with those who can appreciate them most.

As the shows get uploaded we would love for you to share your stories about the epic times the music evokes so we can all dial back into that moment when the magic was happening.

Thanks to Mason’s family and his Chicago and Cleveland friends for opening up Mason’s Jar…"

Recorded By Mason Taylor on a Nakamichi 550 Cassette Deck,
on chrome tapes, with Nakamichi microphones.

Thank you to Charlie Miller for the SBD transfer,
to Mason B. Taylor and Joani Walker for recording the show,
and to Rob Bertrando for help with pitch correction.

Notes:

The soundboard source was pitch corrected.

Joani Walker's tape (#89187) starts the matrix and patches the AUD for the first notes of Uncle John's Band, a brief cut in He's Gone, a cut at the He's Gone > Other One transition (mostly patched), a cut at the end of Not Fade Away, and a cut at the end of Brokedown Palace. These gaps were all around 5 seconds or less.

Mason's recording was preferred for the matrix because it was more immersive sounding and blended nicer with the soundboard, despite it being a first generation "safety tape."

A brief clicking noise was reduced during Drums.

Both SBD and Mason's AUD sources only had the second set.
