[Quote from the Release notes / Jon's Attic: This has to be one of the best audience recordings from Jim's 1970 American tour but sadly it probably will never see the light of day as a Dagger release although in my humble opinion it should be strong candidate. A cracker of a concert from start to finish, it has spell binding versions of "Red House" (64) and "Hear My Train A-Comin'" (41). The version of "Machine Gun" (17) here is an absolute killer. The more familiar version on the "Band of Gypsys" album was just a rehearsal for this. There are a couple of dropouts at the start of the show. These could be fixed but this is the raw, unedited source straight from the master reel.]

[* A total of 4 sources have been used for this merge; The Sbd source from "Stages", the Sbd source from the "Jimi Hendrix At The Atlanta Pop Festival" VHS, the Stereo Aud source and the Sbd Space mix.]
notes:
- The "Stages" and VHS soundboards have fake audience noise loops - including booing loops (!) - throughout the concert. These have all been deleted in this merge.
- Only "Red House" (71), "All Along The Watchtower" (10) and "Hey Joe" (56) are taken from the VHS video.
- The Audience recording contains the most accurate atmosphere of the actual concert and thus the merge has been built around it.
- Only the end of "Freedom" (21), "Foxy Lady" (89) and the beginning of "Purple Haze" (98) are missing on the Aud source.
- The Space mix has no fake audience noises but has ugly reverb added to it (hence 'space' mix). This source has been used as 'in between song banter' filler - especially on the parts not recorded by the audience tape - and to fill the gaps left due to the deletion of the 'fake audience noises'.

KB Hallen - Merge (Vibratory 001) (KB Hallen, Copenhagen 03.09.70 [Complete Show - Vibratory Stereo Effect mix (3 Sources)];) Aud; 1st, 2nd & 5th Source synchronized
notes:
- Up until "Freedom" (26) there are 3 sources mixed: Source 1 left, Source 5 right and Source 2 in the middle. A lot of pitch corrections were done on source 1 and 5. No EQ or filters were applied. Since Source 5 ends with "Freedom" (26) the rest of the concert consists of the two remaining sources: Source 1 left and Source 2 on the right. The pre-"Red House" (79) part is remixed to omit source 2, leaving Source 1 and 2 left and right respectively. But Source 2 is still used to fill gaps. Some phasing occures at the very beginning of "Hey Baby (New Rising Sun)" (13), and also a few times throughout the merge, though very briefly. Also source 5 begins to stutter violently during "Hey Baby (New Rising Sun)" (13), followed by a gap, and then resumes and continues to stutter well into "All Along The Watchtower" (13). This is covered up with source 2 and by keeping source 5 lower in the mix until the 'stutter-part' is over. Source 2 is the most complete source and fills gaps from the original tapes left and right so there's some panning going on a few times.

[* This is a compilation from different tape sources. Because of minor repairs that were done, it shouldn't be considered a "raw sources" collection. There were many clicks scattered throughout the recordings, and several bursts of static. Most of these were repaired, although some that indicated tape stoppages on the original recording were kept. Pitch of some tracks was adjusted as mentioned below. In a couple of cases where two different sources were composited together to make the most complete version of a song, some EQ was applied to the parts to make the sound consistent. There were many sudden or gradual changes in recording level, so volume adjustments have been made to even these out. The lowest generation material was exactly at concert pitch, and for all tracks with vocals by Jimi, vocals sounded correct at concert pitch. Therefore all of the tracks were adjusted to match this tuning. In most cases this required less than a 2% adjustment, so most people won't notice the difference. But at least all of the material is at the same tuning now.]

Luckily they were retrieved and ended up in an auction at Southeby's in December 1981. Since then they have turned up in various guises on collectors lists and of course have been treated to the usual shabby mangling on various bootleg releases. Over the years I've had various copies of these tracks from terrible to very good. These however are the best I have ever come across and were supplied to me by a very reliable source who told me he had managed to track down and obtain a dub from the masters on DAT. Given the quality I have no reason to doubt his claim.]
