View NotesNotes:
- Thanks to Rob Eaton for both the master reel source and transfer
- Thanks to Charlie Miller for coordinating this effort
- All of the 1st set and most of the 2nd set has been pitch corrected. The 1st set was a mess. As I understand it, the deck was inadvertantly on battery power and it wasn't until after "Here Comes Sunshine" that someone realized that the deck was not plugged in. Consequently, there were serious speed issues, culminating in the "chipmunks on speed" version of "Here Comes Sunshine". What made things even more difficult was the fact that the speed issues were non-linear, requiring the pitch to be adjusted in as little as 0:10 increments, with the speed being both slow, then fast, in a matter of seconds. Just to give an idea of the severity, the raw transfer of "Here Comes Sunshine" (HCS Raw) has been included in this torrent for your listening pleasure.
- Sadly, this copy also exhibits a "static" like scratching noise in parts of "He's Gone" and "Truckin'", which has been minimized as best as possible
- Thanks to audiohead22 for his help with the pitch corrections, as well as the "static" like scratching noise present at the end of "He's Gone" and the beginning of "Truckin'"
- Thanks to the folks responsible for the shnid135381 Sony ECM22p source which supplies the "Intro" and first few notes of "Bertha" (0:43 total), as well as a 0:26 patch in "Eyes Of The World" 
- Thanks to the folks responsible for the shnid123407 Candelario source which supplies a 0:24 patch in "Loose Lucy", a 0:27 patch in "Truckin'", as well as a 1:17 patch in "I Know You Rider"
- Thanks to the folks responsible for the shnid14196 source for the FM source which supplies a 0:19 patch in "Here Comes Sunshine" where the speed issues could not be corrected, as well as the tuning and first 0:19 of "Looks Like Rain" (0:32 total)
- Multiple sources were used for patching due to the varying sound qualities/wind noise present on each version, at any given time
- There's a tape flip in "Playin' In The Band" that has been smoothed and not patched. Available patch sources didn't lend themselves as patch material,so it was left alone. It is virtually transparent
- Mix issues during "Bertha"
- Levels were smoothed

View NotesReel dubbed in 1979 by Will Boswell from Jerry Garcia's personal collection. Original recording made by the sound crew at the soundboard.  It is assumed that the 1979 dub came direct off of the master. This is the same master recording that is heard on shnid=6019, but casts that lineage into question as this transfer is a clear upgrade.

While you may find this to be one of the very best sounding 1973 audience recordings you have encountered, please note the persistence of wind noise here and there throughout the show. Ambient most of the time, mildly distracting only occasionally, and intrusive only a handful of times, the wind element in no way overshadows the brilliance of the recording, but bears mentioning, none-the-less.

Taper Notes:

View Notes- This version has been provided by an anonymous source.
- The speed of some tracks in Set I were all over the place, in parts they were as much as 30% too fast.  The Start of "Looks Like Rain" was so mangled I have put in a 17.5 second patch using Matt Smith's transfer of Will Boswell's copy of Jerry's master aud.  I edited it a little so that it is a better fit.
- The whole of Set I and the first two tracks of Set II have been speed adjusted by reference to Matt Smith's transfer.
- A number of level adjustments have been made.
- Cuts in "Playing In The Band", "Loose Lucy","Truckin'", "I Know You Rider" and "Eyes Of he World" have been smoothed, as far as possible, with crossfades.
- There is some static like noise during parts of "He's Gone" and "Truckin'" 
- All files are tagged.


Comments:

- NFA, Mountain Jam and Johnny B. Goode with the Allman Brothers and the Band. This show remains the largest rock concert in history.
- As you can see from the above this is far from perfect but when it's good, it's very good and you do get 5 tracks that have not previously circulated in soundboard quality.

From Gerry

"They had tower set out in the field with delays so that it all sounded okay. Pretty neat PA, I can't recall anyone doing that. Well anyway it made taping easy. I was able to stand in fornt of the first set of towers, about 200-300 ft from the stage and I stood about 20 feet in front of that pa setup, so I had pretty clear sound. I recorded everything on a tc-126 with the 2-point stereo micrphone."
