It's All Over Now, Baby Blue | 1966-09-16 | Grateful Dead

View NotesAudacity 1.3.3-beta was used to make WAV files.
ClickRepair 2.1.1 was used to remove clicks at its lowest settings (Declick 1, Wavelet method, Decrackle off).
Trader's Little Helper 1.1.1 was used to make level 6 FLAC files 

This is a new rip of the "semi-legal" bootleg LPs "Vintage Dead" and "Historic Dead", using high-quality analog equipment. I haven't listened to the other circulating versions, but this should be a substantial improvement assuming they were made with average analog equipment.

These recordings are commonly said to come from Avalon Ballroom 9-16-66 except the last two tracks, which I have seen attributed to The Matrix 11-29-66, though I haven't confirmed that myself. The sound quality of those two tracks is noticeably different. According to set lists for 9-16-66, tracks 06 and 07 were played between tracks 03 and 04, and track 05 was an encore. I have left the tracks in the LP order because crowd noise was inserted between the tracks of side one of Vintage Dead, so reordering the tracks would create an obvious break.

Taper Notes:

View NotesTwo semi-legal LPs of the show were released, "Vintage Dead," in October 1970, and 
"Historic Dead," in June 1971. It was later released in 1972 as "Pop History Volume 23," 
comprised of both albums. The albums were released on Sunflower Records, and were not 
official releases, but were tolerated by the band, so not all-out bootlegs.
