The goal:
To archive all 1974 Bob Dylan & The Band shows onto CDR from the best possible sources (including The Band sets).
What I'm looking for:
I already have all 40 Dylan sets from this tour on analog tapes of various quality. What I'm looking for now is Master or close to master tapes to burn onto CDR in hopes of archiving the best possible sources from this tour. I would also like to get as many sets by The Band as possible.
