Ok, I am gonna have some fun for a little while, recently a collection on the Internet Archive has been appearing....
These upcoming videos are my attempt to restore some of these older tapes that they have transferred to some semblance of presentable.
They are captured in an odd resolution, stretching 4:3 into a somewhat, but not truly, widescreen format... As a result, you will notice somewhat ovular bass drums for instance. They also exhibit the entire frame so they are cropped to get rid of the stuff the plastic on the edges of your screen used to obscure for you...so, I will do that and upscale back to a 'traditional' resolution. The color is often crappy from the master tape, so I delve into that a bit too... Perhaps I have better versions on VHS, but that requires crawling around in my attic that wasn't supposed to be an attic...upgrades always are a possibility here.
An example of a previous lifting from this IA stuff is the previously posted reunion show from New Orleans... Next is a Houston reunion show I am currently working on.
