Taper Notes:
View NotesNotes: - DC offset removed - 60Hz hum during track 1 reduced - The sound starts off a little rough but after about 4:20 0f "Casey Jones" it improves quite considerably. - A number of level adjustments made. - Tape flip after "High Time" There is nothing available to patch it with. Thanks to my late friend Harvey Lubar, Tim Dalton and Charlie Miller for this source. edited and mastered SIRMick February 2018

Taper Notes:
View NotesDroncit notes: *Lots of problems in Casey Jones - distortion, noisy pots, loose wiring. I tried to fix as much as I could. Mostly in left channel, but some in both. Some fun comments after Casey Jones related to coca-cola. **Garcia says "boogie" before his second solo ***Opening riff to Big Boss Man is played, so songs may be missing. ****Someone in the audience calls it. *****the opening to Cosmic Charlie sounds like an edit was made; songs may be missing or it may not have come directly from Cryptical I was listening to this as it was; it had nice sound quality, but there were a couple of noticeable speed issues. 101 through 115 had a curvilinear increase in speed and was slightly fast. 201 through 210 was noticeably slow, but in a straight offset. I straightened the first out and slowed it very slightly; I sped the 2nd one up slightly. They are all very close to the same speed now. There were also spots that appeared to be from a stretched tape. Noticeably Pigpen's opening line to Alligator. Still not perfect, but better. After that, I thought I might as well rework the sound, which seemed to have at least 2 generations in it, and had a lot of clipping in certain songs. Dancing in the Streets was especially bad. There's still a lot of distortion on vocals for some songs. I de-clipped it (about 300,000 clips altogether), and gain-normalized by channel. Finally, I used a multi-filter on it with equalization, very light expansion, and some virtual valves. All done with Diamond Cut Forensics 8.5 and 9 alpha 2. No noise reduction was needed, so just a tiny bit of hiss is evident. The original indicates that Cumberland is a "possible set 2" - it's difficult to say, so I just left it as it was numbered.
