this track has the same characteristics of the first one you posted, looks very very similar (as expected).

you can use view>spectral view to see s.a. in cool edit 2000. zoom the view to around 2seconds on several parts usually is best.

there's some shows making the rounds that are from the pre-md days yet have distinctive ATRAC (MD) artifacts visible. they also look like very clean digital transfers, so probably some people with MD decks have been archiving to ATRAC very carefully, probably not realizing what was lost in the process. you should be able to find a clean copy of this if you talk to some of the zeppelin ppl around here.

also I recommend using a ripping program that provides error reports (EAC is what I use). Make sure it is in secure mode & even better to determine & set your offsets... info is here: http://users.pandora.be/satcp/tutorials.htm
