Wow! Thanks, Bill - marvelous!

How great is E's tone here? And it's on that ugly Sierra!!!

(I know he liked the sound of that guitar.)

I'm struck by the level of commitment and preparation here. This is a disciplined and professional show.

Great job on sound and mixing, Bill.

Thanks Roger.
People don't realize that we mixed the recording on the fly, through headphones that had to be louder than the room sound. And we did this from ever how many channels were being used, down to 2 tracks for a stereo recording.

No sound checks.

That's back when i still had good ears. Hehe
