I have a master of this show that is a different source tape and to the best of my recollection is complete. However it is not the best sounding recording. It was a very early attempt of mine with somewhat lowfi gear - Panasonic stereo handheld recorder with built in mics and auto levels. I need to find the transfer I did a few years back but it is on my to do list. I may also send the cassettes to mjk5510 on DIME. He is very experienced with transferring and mastering old cassettes (he worked extensively on the Mike Millard recordings and recordings of mine and many other tapers). So stay tuned...
 
@hobbes4444 I've got great a great transfer setup and pretty good experience with transferring old tapes (see the Aug 23rd '77 and June 25th '75 tapes for a couple notable Rush examples), so if you want, I'd be happy to work on it for you if you chose. I'm also familiar with the work of mjk5510 and the some of the other JEMS guys, who I've collaborated with on a handful of things. Our tape transfers setups and results are very similar.
 
I did the transfer with a Nak Cassette Deck 1 with azimuth correction. So if I find it, should be good. But Goody may have to check the speed. If I can't find it I'll reach out again
 
Great deck, the transfer should sound perfectly fine provided the rest of the lineage is on par with that. I personally use a Nak DR-1 with azimuth adjusting on all tapes/sides, very similar deck. So you should be good (y)

Last time I tried asking Goody to work on a Rush tape he didn't seem interested in working on it, so I figured he doesn't like the band, but maybe that's because the tape had a lot of issues.
Goody has always done excellent work on speed adjustments otherwise. If in any event he doesn't work on it for you, I know a several other people who speed adjust for me who could help out.
