This is the first of two audience recordings documenting this show I plan to share.
The 'Breathless In Paris' video soundtrack has been exhaustively shared over the years but I don't think the audience recordings are in wide circulation.

What I thought was going to be a simple vinyl transfer turned into a pitch correction nightmare.  I almost threw in the towel a few times but once you start these things it's sometimes tough to let them go.

This is taken from the 4LP vinyl set 'Live In Paris', the set is not the best pressing and is rife with pitch issues. Not only was each side pitched slightly differently but each song on each side was pitched slightly differently.  I ended up having to correct the pitch on each individual song. 

To make matters worse one LP was pressed mis-aligned creating speed fluctuations on 5 songs that could not be corrected.  I considered using the alternate recorder for those songs but opted to go with the originals to get the complete Recorder 1 in circulation (one could always substitute those songs with the Recorder 2 songs once I share that version).

The 'Atlantic City' patch only came about as I was pitch correcting the track and realized it was 7 seconds shorter when matching it up (the pitch was off but not that drastically).  The edit was done very well on the LP as I would not have known it was off if I wasn't pitch correcting it, this has been corrected.
