This is strictly a remaster of the 1st tape source,no patches to complete tracks or plantations have been added.

I know that whenever my friends and I have put together a project for the community,we like to make a project as complete as possible, but there is a reason why we've remastered and posted the first tape source on it's own.
It's quite a long and detailed story though, so I'll spare everyone the details, and just post my notes about this recording.

I've always liked the "Front Row" source, it may be a little muddy in some places,and the boot labels have amplified it a little too hot, but there are moments in the recording that really shine, like "Stairway To Heaven",the acoustic set, and "Whole Lotta Love" (Especially when the band gets into "Tobacco Road").

What we've done to this recording:

- We've reduced the "Hotness" of the recording, and have tried to make it sound easier on the ears.
- We've tried to balance the instruments and the acoustics as much as possible.
- We've reduced as much tape hiss as possible.
- We've tried to bring out things that were buried in the recording (crowd cheers,clapping,commentary).

We hope everyone will enjoy what we've done.
Cheers
