The Maidenlane Recordings:
a Mick Taylor tribute
Long-time Mick Taylor fan Maidenlane taped a number of Mick’s gigs on the East Coast (mainly in New York City) between November 1986 - May 1993 to preserve his own memories. Around the same time Mick Taylor lived in NYC and thus did a lot of concerts there, with his own bands or as a guest artist with other great musicians.
In our first series we first published the concerts that had never been circulated in any form. By listening to the others we discovered that many of his alternative recordings were interesting too. In the second series we publish the “Maidenlane Tapes Alts” which will feature recordings that are either in better sound quality, more complete or sound differently from previous releases.
In this last series we present the result of mixes and merges which will be similar to the Frankenstein productions (of my FP-series): by “mixing” I mean that I simultaneously record the 2 sources and by “merging” I mean that I record each source on a different channel (one for the left channel and the other for the right).
Of course, we are very grateful to Maidenlane and I also would like to thank nzb for his help (his advice, judgements and expertise have been invaluable to me).

The same situation which presented itself for several shows is repeated here: we have two recordings coming from the same source but in very different quality.
Here a soundboard recording exists in two versions: the 1st one (source #1, coming from nzb) is a little muddy and saturated but lossless, another one (source #2, coming from me) has a better sound but has a limited spectrum (lossy?).
The best result here was to combine the 2nd source with the Maidenlane recording.
All the recordings used are edited, declicked and channels equilibrated and of course speed synchronized.
Because I like both versions I decided to post them both!
As usual I used a lot the infos taken from The Mick Taylor Complete Works Database by Nico Zentgraf
