JUST NOTICED MY DOWNLOAD VGP 187 European Tour Stuttgart 1970 ( September 20 1970) FROM [www.hungercity.org] IS A VERY SMALL SIZE [ONLY 144MB] SO THAT ONE MUST BE FLAC TAKEN FROM MP3 SOURCE

I DIDN'T INSTALL EAC YET, BUT I CANN"T BE WRONG.

PLEASE CHECK YOURS AND WHEN YOU HAVE REAL FLAC, PLEASE UPLOAD.

The small size of FLAC files doesn't always mean they are mp3 sourced. I have checked my version of Stuttgart 1970. The WAV version is about 620 MB. Compressed to FLAC level 6 it becomes 150 MB. The spectral view show only the limited frequecy response of this recording. The spectral view show a lot of high frequency noise, even above 20000 Hz, which is not a mp3 feature. The frequency analysis doesn't show the frequency drop out at about 15000 Hz typical for mp3. So it is likely what we have is only a low fidelity recording.

OK, in this case I can post the flacs

Please bear in mind, that there are two sources for this show! VGP & DAC!

VGP-187 to me sounds a bit better, more punch, but has more noise from the audience.

The other version is on "Germany 1970"

DAC-070 disc two; still available from Keessie:

I got this source also from a friend sometime ago, when it was on a torrent site.
The same source as DAC, but sounding a bit better, unfortunately "Let It Rock" is missing on the torrent version.

thanks for the tip..i will check out if it's esy to matrix/merge of these !

Considering DAC 070 basically uses the same source as the VGP187 which is considerably larger in size and has a different frequency respons this upload might be lossy after all. Besides that there's some diginoise audible on Dead Flowers.

It's not lossy, the small size is because it's mono:
600 MB WAV -> ~300 MB FLAC stereo -> ~150 MB FLAC mono
