Taper Notes:

View NotesThis was recorded "Off The Air". Different mix than shnid 106021
Fade out on Brown Eyed Women due to tape flip
Last few seconds of Terrapin Station faded out due to tape flip
Drums, Space and 0:00 -0:58 of Truckin' pulled from shnid 106021 for
continuity. I didn't record that section for reasons I don't remember
No FM broadcast listed on db.etree till now. Available SBD sources listed
as "Pre FM"
A crackle or pop here and there, but overall this is a very nice recording
25 years to transfer? I'm a little slow. JackStraw66, May 21, 2011. Enjoy.

Taper Notes:

View Notes*Weir says this song is a "drummers' choice." As if.

Other issues
NFA fades in at the beginning.
Some of the between-song space is cut in set I.
First 10 seconds or so of Terrapin vocals are cut.
Tape flip between Terrapin and drums.
Drums and space have been assembled seamlessly and may be reassembled.
A little hiccup at 0:15 of Truckin'.
Splice at 0:06 of Lovelight, missing about 5 seconds.

If anybody has any idea what the hell Bobby is talking about before "Let It Grow," I'm all ears.

Thanks to Stephen B. Porter, wherever he is these days, for the recording.
