Legendary Tapers Series #26, From an offmaster copy of an audience recording; Taper: LTE, Discussion:, The "Gospel Project" discusses two "reference tapes" as the sources for its, analysis., One of these tapes is complete, containing all the girls' songs. The "Covenant Woman" on, this recording has speed problems. The "Gospel Project" indicates that circulating versions, of this show sometimes lack "Covenant Woman" or substitute a performance of this song from, some other night. This complete version, with the speed-marred "Covenant Woman", is the, recording I am torrenting here. My source did not identify the taper, but indicated that, the recording was an offmaster one., The second "reference tape" described by "Gospel Project" lacks all the girls' songs and contains a, "Covenant Woman" that comes from a different performance than 11-20-79. I received this recording, from my source, who identified it as from the LTE master., It seems likely that this incomplete recording and the "complete" version derive from the, same original (LTE) recording. A more detailed examination would be required, but listening, to a few tracks did not suggest any obvious fingerprints that would indicate they have, a different ultimate source. The fact that both have an issue with respect to "Covenant, Woman" suggests that the substitution may have been prompted by the speed problem., Thus it would seem reasonable that the two tapes are simpy different incarnations of, a single (LTE) recording of the show., In any case, I have opted for the complete version for seeding, and assume LTE to be the taper., If anyone has any further information or confirmation, I would welcome hearing from you at, kisseber@hotmail.com.
