I'm also very excited about this recording and came here to check whether anybody has a lossless (non mp3 ) version of this show. But no luck so far. To me, this recording sounds better than the official live 1969 Sunday Concert album. I chose a different approach with the capturing of the audio stream, using a program called "Total Recorder".
I had to capture it in 1 minute portions as it became scrambled after one minute, then had to painstakingly put the 1 minute segments back together in a wave editor. The result was worth it so: I discovered, that some of the tracks are in stereo, which is not preserved in the capture posted here. Tracks 1, 2 and 9 to 18 are in Stereo. I got no idea why some of these tracks are in stereo, others in mono.
I also like the sound of Gordon's live voice best from this period. I hope very much that an uncompressed version of this show will surface one day. Until then I'll enjoy this one.
