Comment This is a rip of Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs' 1981 "Original Master Recording" cassette tape release of Pink Floyd's 1973 album The Dark Side Of The Moon. The tape was played back on a Yamaha KX-930 with Dolby B noise reduction turned on, with the audio recorded on a Zoom H1 field recorder, and the audio normalized with peak amplitude at -0.1dB in Audacity 2.4.2. This version of the rip is speed-corrected by about 1.2%, as the cassette played slightly slower in the original rip (likely due to worn belts on the deck). There are some partial dropouts on Track 6 ("Money") due to the tape being partially chewed by one of my other decks I tried playing back this tape on. [Rip done December 24, 2023]
