Alright
Not sure why it didn't play for me, but glad i posted here and didn't delete it. Once i copied the good channel over the bad one, made the mono (although still mono) a stereo recordings, it plays fine. Damn good band out of Louisville, they opened for the Felice brothers @ Lebowskifest. I went ahead and got the audience tape nice and greasy, now that this works get to go back and mix it in.
Thanks everybody
