A little more involved, but this should work:

Extract the files from the CD to your hard drive (use whatever the
preferred Mac tool is for this). Save the songs as individual files.
Open each file with Audacity (free audio editor) and zoom in on the
last two seconds - there should be a zero level here. Cut the last
two seconds out, save the files and burn them to a CD with DAO.

That's how I'd do it on Linux, and Audacity is platform-independent.

Ahhh. I have Audacity on my iMac, and I'll grab a newer version for the
newer computer. But as it is, I'm listening to the CD as I type this, and
the CD is so fantastic that the 2 second gap isn't all that annoying after
all.

That said, I tried Tarp Skiddoo's (good name) method, but when I saw the
message "only 1 hour, 3 minutes remaining", errr, no thanks. As much as I
like Macs and most of the free software supplied with MacOS, I think its
music related software is second-rate; y'know, software for non-picky Dead
Heads.

Everyone here who likes the Band will love this show. I have a few others
from around the same time frame, and this one is by far, the best. I'm so
sorry I never caught Danko solo. The last time I saw him was the reunion
of The Band, without Robbie Robertson but with everyone else. No idea what
year that way, maybe mid-80s? It was at the Saddlerack, a cowboy bar in
San Jose that had one of those mechanical bulls you could ride. It was
bizarre, and all night, the common phrase tossed out was "how the mighty
have fallen."
