This is a further clean up of shnid 33802, which incorporates those already made on shnid 34032.

I have now repaired all digital errors that I was able to hear on d1 and 2, and two that were missed in Dark Star.

Their was a particularly stubborn problem at approximately 0:42 into China Cat, which I eventually patched with a 36 ms sample from shnid 9390.  I don't think it's noticeable.

It was brought to my attention (thanks Phil) that according to The Tapers Compendium, set one ended after Black Throated Winded.  Jerry says " We are gonna take a very short break here .....) so I've revised the setlist accordingly.

View NotesAs well as repairing the digital errors on d3, I have eliminated some small gaps between tracks on d1 and d2.  I have also moved the "count in" to Playin' from the end of d1 to the start of d2 as this seems to make more sense.

Digitally Remastered using the Bertha Digital Audio Workstation by jashley@deadacated.com.  Completed April 14, 2006.

This was a terrible transfer with more than 100 digi-snits throughout the show. More than 16 hours was spent fixing most of them. There are a few small ones that remain. A couple of methods were used in fixing the digi-snits, including manually editing individual samples.

Bobby says "See you later, bye bye" at the end of One More Saturday Night. Frequency and spectral analysis shows the signature to be the same as the rest of the show. Though it may appear out of order, it is believed this is due to the show being partially broadcast on French TV and this may have been the end of the TV part of the show.

Between song tuning and banter was removed by someone and is not part of the original release. There appears to be tape machine noise between each song on the original. These small bips of noise were removed.

This is A fantastic show with absolutely wonderful sound.
Enjoy!

View NotesPLease note that several songs are not in what was previously considered the correct order (prior to this seed). To the best of our knowledge, Mr. Charlie was not performed that night, but you never know.
