notes:

I'm sure all of you know that this is the 1st show without Mickey Hart for a few years.
Yes you can D/L the show from GDLive or Archive.org or you have already had it for years. BUT! This is a new perspective. I recently borrowed 1st Gen Reels of an AUDIENCE recording of this
show! It is amazing to hear the audience and bands interaction. This is NOT an A+
recording but I'm an engineer and remastered to the best of my abilities. There are some cuts
and even a little bleed from whatever was recorded over when the dub was made. My friend
Don was there and go the dubs. The masters cannot be tracked down but these were 1st gens! I'm
99% sure this recording never really got out there. It was a 1st gen .5" reel. I already forgot if it was 7.5ips or 15ips. The tape was recycled too, meaning it was taped over to record this show. My friend knew the taper but can't get anymore details. The reel sat for years before we did this transfer. There was more on the reels that the community was happy to hear about too.
It was a mono recording and I remastered it. I'm happy to have been able to restore this gem
for the masses to hear. I've gotten so much from you all it is great to give some back!!

I had vined this in summer of 2002 but this might be the first data distrobution.

Here's to a full decade of missing Jerry Garcia!

I hope you enjoy the early audience recording!
