Notes/Flaws/Comments:

- I consider this to be an essential part of any music collection.

There is a long-circulating .shn set which has the advantage of

having been .shn'd without any DAE. This set has the (to me, more

important!) advantage of being more complete, including everything

up to the point that the plug was pulled on Ed Perlstein's deck. The

other set also has the emcee announcing "Jerry Garcia and Merl Saunders"

just as they launch into Think, but I could not get it patched in very

cleanly, and so I left the CDs as they were mastered. The two sources

sound equally excellent to my ears.

- d2t04 Roadrunner cuts in, unknown missing

- The plug was pulled on the board patch during Mystery Train. For the

whole of the song, the R channel was considerably weaker than the left,

and from 3:05.357 until the end it was basically missing. Until that

point I applied a 3.0db volume gain, and after that point I patched the

L channel over the R. Mystery Train then cuts out @ 3:39. I faded down

the last 0.25 seconds to ease the pain of the cut.

Huge thanks to Ed Perlstein for the source CDs!
