Well this reminds me of a sarcastic comment I once saw on a dime thread of a Bob Dylan
remaster that still had problems...it read, "This remaster needs remastering!!" Pretty funny.
I'm very sorry if you already downloaded my VGRM09 of this show that I posted a few
days ago, but I think that you should just delete that & get this one. The more I critically
listened to the show, the more clicks, mic bump/burps & other anomalies I found, so I
ended up just combing through the whole show with open ears & getting rid of them. Some
were minor, some were very loud & now they are gone. They were not on every track,
but they were on most(all but 5)...sometimes just one within the track, sometimes a
few. Once I finshed this whole process, I couldn't get the few previously clean FLACs to
link up with the 'new' FLACs without gaps &/or SBEs, so there was no way of letting the
folks who already downloaded to just drop the 'bad' tracks & fill up their folders...so
very sorry, you'll all have to get it again, but let me say that it is so worth it because I think
it sounds great & 99% of all problems are now gone(a few bits of minor digi-noise remain
[see new notes below]). I really enjoyed diggin' on this show & hope you do, too. Again,
my sincere apologies for making you re-download it, but trust me, if you wanted it before,
then you want this version now!!

NAME THAT TUNE!!: In the final minute of "The Shape I'm In", Zero teases a very famous
tune that I(& you, probably) heard many times while growing up. I'm embarrased to
say that I can't place the name of it, but it is soooo familiar. I think it's a very 'American-centric'
tune...can you name it?? I know that you can!!

OK, so here is a very tasty Zero show from 1996 that I just finished remastering.

Now some of you may be wondering why I remastered this random Zero show. Well, the easy
answer could be, "why not??", but in all reality, I was checking it out & it was a typically great
Zero show from this period, but it just seriously lacked any bass or bottom end to the recording.
I don't know if this was a result of the microphones used or this was how it was mixed in the
house that night, but I like my Zero with the presence of Bobby Vega being known!!!!
After many tries, I believe that I found an EQ that established his meaty presence without
sacrificing the beautiful highs. I hope that you all agree. In my opinion it is much better &
therefore I wanted to share it with you all. I also applied the dc offset, Balanced out the
beginning of the show(Matinee Set) where the taper was getting his levels adjusted, and
found & cleanly removed a few errant clicks, bumps and/or pops(now, of course, I found
& removed many, many more[2/24-25/11]).

Enjoy!!

Notes:
-- This is a remaster of shnid=110032 & "VGRM09".
-- 5 instances of mild digi-noise remain in "Use Me" st 1:08, 1:18, 1:32, 2:26 & 2:39 into track(not terrible,
but there).
-- Bad, huge digi-noise in "La Fiesta" at 4:27 into track for 1.5 seconds that I had to copy left channel over.
Didn't want to, but had no choise as it was very loud & destructive & no other way of getting rid of it.
-- Recorded By Kent Tomita
-- DAT provided by Matthew Berman from Pat "PC" Cooper's collection.
-- Many thanks to Charlie Miller, Kent Tomita, Pat Cooper & Matthew Berman
for sharing this killer show with us all.
