Try here:

This RAR contains the slowed-down MP3 version of 7/7/78, a text file containing the track listing etc, and an MP3 of the Los-Jaivas track ripped from you tube.

Cheers
Alan

  Any chance of sharing this with us, Alan, please ?

  I performed a similar multi-part speed correction on the
  old 790719 tape (Russians session) - it took quite a while.

  That begs the question about the current 400 Box transfer
  project : 

  Are the tapes just going to be released to the great
  world public complete with helium-voiced Peely and bad editing etc ?
  Or could some sort of 'centralised' remastering be done to create
  the definitive FLAC/MP3 ? Otherwise we could end up with loads of
  remaster versions, some of them good, some bad, no standard ....

  Much as I enjoy tinkering with Audacity,
  it could take me (and others) years to remaster 400 tapes !

  Bye
