QUALITY : I use the Jimpress grading system.
(E+) Excellent+, cd quality
(E) Excellent, top quality analogue source
(VG+) Very good +, vinyl, very slight noise / distortion
(VG) Very good, generally good but not professional quality
(G+) All instruments audible, some distortion
(G) Good, all instruments audible with excessive hiss, compressed sound or distortion
(R) Reasonable, fair instrument balance, but sound quality below avarage
(F) Fair, poor balance, at least one instrument inaudible, bad distortion
(P) Poor, only main instrument clearly audible (e.g. guitar or vocals), very distorted with bad hall ambience
(A) Abysmal, virtually inaudible

This list only includes clean discs, as far as I know any noises / drop-outs / cuts exist on the masters
or on all copies circulating, unless otherwise noted.

9 Wild thing (unrepairable drop-out at 6.40)

Flamingo, London, England
Saturday 4 February 1967
Composite of two sources, phase & pitch corrected (by +5%). A raw low gen source was used as the main source. A cut before Catfish Blues was patched from a heavily eq'd 2nd gen source, the eq was reversed but since the 2nd gen tape was digital mono there is a change in the hiss (from stereo to mono) in the patched section. Some clicks not on the master were removed and drop-outs fixed (as well as possible) at 0.39 in Rock Me Baby, 2.24 in Hey Joe and 6.40 in Wild Thing. At least the first two drop-outs were not on the original master as they are in stereo which is why it was possible to improve them by patching one channel with the other. Ultimately this composite is a compromise for the time being, somewhere there must be a straight low gen transfer of the complete uncut mono master or perhaps the master itself will pop up one day.

Source 1: Master (reel?) > ? > cdr > cdr > wav
Raw low gen source.
The MC's speech after Wild Thing is complete, this is the only dub that has it.
The cut before Catfish Blues takes place before Jimi mentions Muddy Waters, several seconds are missing. Phase & pitch corrected (by +5%) in May 2008.

Source 2: Master (reel?) > 2nd gen
Heavily eq'd digital mono 2nd gen source.
This source was used to patch the cut before Catfish Blues.
The MC's speech after Wild thing is missing.
The cut before Catfish Blues takes place after Jimi mentions Muddy Waters. There's a short repeat section on the tape at this point so there's actually no audio lost.
