Ever wonder what Clarence would sound like with The Flying Burrito Brothers? I've had an audience version of this for years, but this one sounds amazing. You have to have a free account with Dime a Dozen. Grab this one while you can!

Info:
THE FLYING BURRITO BROTHERS
June 8, 1969
The Palomino, North Hollywood, CA

About 10 years ago (this did say 15 years when first posted, but I realized I was off by a few), a friend told me that a co-worker of his had recorded the Flying Burrito Brothers in the late '60s. As the story goes, the guy was something of an audiophile and had recorded this show on reel to reel in stereo, of sorts, with one mic on the stage and another spread far apart.

While the recording had circulated before, the guy went back to his original reels and did what was described as a "meticulous transfer." I don't know if it was done on a computer or on a standalone, but what was sent to me were two CD-Rs. I'm pretty sure they were straight off his DAT or the CD-R set he had made for himself direct from the reels. The quality of his transfer was superior to anything I had heard before. All edits, fades and such are his doing. The lineage here is Master Reel > DAT or CD-R > CD-R(1) > FLAC.

The credits below are from the notes he sent to me with the discs. Some titles and spellings differ slightly from what's listed on some websites as are the order of the sets. You make the call.

really sorry to ask this, but i tried to register to hear that burrito recording online, the dime a dozen site is maxed out, says it can only take 100,000 subscribers so may not be able to accomodate more in future. would anyone care to somehow record/save/make available (the burrito tape) to this CWF forum website any other way?

i realize it is a lot to ask. hoping to hear it sometime, hillman/kleinow/white the god/gram collaboration or just jam should be very interesting.
many thanks in advance-

Interesting .....

Jimmy Morris/Morse was from a rival club, Dick Clark's VIS club.
Clarence used to jam with some of the guys from the VIS band at the Imperial Inn after hours jam (run by Earl Ball), Clarence was without a doubt one of the main links between the Hollywood studio pickers, the songwriters at the Troubador and the straight up country pickers around the L.A. honky-tonk bar scene.

What is this site? I clicked on what appeared to be a download link and got a 25k file that can't be opened....so I tried a Cream one from the site and got a slightly larger file...same thing. No mp3's to be found - but a lot of posts about "seeders"...??????

[rickhouston]

thanks a lot, if not for you, us non-computer techies couldn't have heard any of it.

Mac users can try Transmisson for the downloading of torrents and xAct for the conversion of FLAC and Shorten files.
I've had some luck with these applications.
Edit: You will probably want to convert the files into AIFF
instead of WAV. The AIFF can then be converted into mp3 or AAC
by using iTunes, for example.

believe it or not that torrent is still alive and coming down at a good speed, must be one of the longest standing uploads in dime history

[raoul]

Yep, incredible, nearly 10 years since it's been upped.

[Silverface]

The only problem is there's no way I'm registering on a torrent site.

Too many people are getting letters from ASCAP, BMI, Universal, Sony and others regarding email addresses being found on known pirate sites. They warn the first time - after that you're screwed. I know one lady who was fined $4500 because her kids downloaded a couple of songs - but the assumption was made that they *could* have downloaded copyrighted material steadily for the 18 months they were registered.e And she LOST the appeal.

If someone can post this in a Dropbox or other personal storage site and provide the link I'd sure like to get a copy. As-is, though, I won't touch it. Already got a warning letter from Sony from something I registered on 5 or 6 years ago and never even used.

[unbridled]

I'm with ya, Silver. I would love to hear them, though.
