Nugs.net's Brad Serling said that the 1977 tapes were part of a larger cache of tapes made by Chas Gerber, Springsteen's sound engineer from the middle of 1975 through the spring of 1977. These recordings, made for reference on the fly, are typically in mono and often incomplete: that's the case with Albany (of which about 45 minutes will appear). Rochester, also in mono, runs about two hours and is complete save for a couple of tape flips (post-production magic should make these less noticeable).
 
Am i the only one thinking that these tapes are the same kind of "official audience" recordings that JEMS has shared with us as part of the "Nothing to loose - The 1977 tour revisited" series?
Hopefully i'm wrong, but i think we won't get soundboard tapes of the 1977 gigs but rather "official audience" recordings of the same kind as Richfield, Milwaukee, St.Louis and Towson.

My guess would be that he is the one responsible for the "official" audience recordings. So be it. What is in the vaults is what they have. I'll take multi tracks from the Darkness and River tours next for five hundred Alex.

Although I thought the same thing when I first heard the news, the answer is a resounding No. if you double check what was said, these are sbd recordings but in Mono not Stereo and recorded on the fly.  They are different tapes then the official aud recordings. This fellow had the same job as Coop during that time period. Unfortunately, he didn't have the technology Coop has now.

Not as good in quality as the tapes we've been getting but  a heck of a lot better than what we've got.
