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 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).
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).

II°] The ‘mixed’ versions
01 - Tusks
02 - Put It Where You Want It
03 - Red House
04 - Giddy Up (faded out)
A version from this show already circulated.
In is initial form, Maidenlane recording was not interesting because of an average sound and because only the first part were recorded..
To valorisate it I decided to make different assays to merge and mixed it with nzb’s version.

The Maidenlane source is declicked, sound amplified and tracks edited. Nzb’s source is declicked, channels equilibrated and transition between the tracks reworked.
For the merged tracks, Maidenlane is in the left channel and nzb’s source in the right channel.
For synchronizing both sources Maidenlane source was decelerated by around -3 to -3,5%.

As usual I used a lot the infos taken from The Mick Taylor Complete Works Database by Nico Zentgraf: [www.nzentgraf.de]
