vanillag NOTES (1/25/2023):
--BIG UP, much thanks & Jah Love to whomever originally recorded this 1988 Jimmy Cliff show. Also much Jah Love to Jeremiah's friend for rescuing these tapes from the thrift store, Jeremiah for sending them to dubwise &, of course, dubwise for transferring & sharing them with us all. Absolutely Appreciated & sounds very, very tasty!!
--"Wild World" (t06) actually begins in the last 9 seconds of t05 (previous track)
--I corrected some song titles toward how they appear on the original albums
--I added the band members info...this was not easy to research & discover, mind you...Jimmy does indeed announce them during the last 47 seconds of "Treat the Youths Right" (t14), but his patois & rhythm of speech still made this not so easy...but through determination, patience, multiple listens & cross-referencing research online, I am confident that I got them all correct. If anyone knowns otherwise on these cats, please chime in.
--I combed thru, researched & added the setlist info (thanks to dime user blackpage for the initial offering toward that info)
--added more detail to the venue info
--created an ffp checksum file
--added the ffp fingerprints to the text file
