hansokolow's Notes:
Some parts proved squirrelly, particularly LTGTR, so lots of cutting was necessary to eliminate (as much as possible) phasing.  This was my very first Dead show, about a month before my 18th birthday.  I was on the upper steps, Phils side, with my dad and step-mom.  My drugs were pot, then in the second set, ecstacy (possibly my first time) and also some mushrooms (thanks again, Mark).  Quite the cocktail.  Obviously it has a huge significance for me, and I recall that I didn't really "get it" until The Other One.  At the time, of course, I didn't really know what a huge Other One this is, but everyone around me and on the way out made it clear that this show had been special.  Enjoy.

View NotesBHP Note: Thought I'd try something a little different as Charlie's Ultramatrix release has better dynamics but for the center channel I used Darryl's SBD that sounded more like a straight soundboard without the added audience for a cleaner in front of you sound.
