Taper Notes:

View NotesThis is the same recording as ID-30072, fresh transfer 
with improvements... The tape spools were re-shelled into Maxell 
cases for smoother playback. Transferred in 2496. Pitch adjusted. 
Drop-outs and levels repaired. Tape pauses cleaned-up with cross 
fades. Patches added from ID-77321 making the show seamless.

Taper Notes:

View Notes-- First notes clipped: Ramble on Rose, Rooster (tape flip), and Terrapin.
-- Tape flip at end of drums. Aprx fifteen seconds missing start of space.
-- At these new year's shows, there were no right and left side speaker 
stacks. Instead, there was one large group of speaker stacks directly over 
center stage and arrayed in a semi-circle. We set up right underneath the 
speaker array, and angled the mics upwards.
-- This was a tremendous show with great energy. (Shakedown!) After Day 
Job, the crowd stayed and cheered for aprx 10 minutes while the BGP people 
tried to get us to leave. Jerry has left the building!
-- Combined CDR tracks with WavMerge, made fades with Soundforge, retracked 
with CD-Wave, SBE-OK and checksums with Trader's Little Helper, lossless 
compression with Flac Frontend.
