Comments:

The way that this sounds is more faithfull to Bear’s original mix than the Miller seed shnid 106883.

From Grateful Dead Guide (deadessays.blogspot.co.uk)

There was a dramatic shift in Bear’s production technique by the 3/12/66 show. He mentioned a synesthetic
experience of seeing music circulating: ìMy knowledge of the true nature of sound dates back toÖone of the
rehearsals we had in the house in Watts, when I actually saw sound coming out of the speakers. It was total
synesthesiaÖ It was just a unique experience. And it so completely blew my mindÖI went around and inspected
it very carefullyÖ And that became the foundation for all the sound work that Iíve done.î
http://www.thebear.org/musicintro.html.

Whether it was due to this experience or not, sometime in February or early March, Bear changed the way he mixed
the Dead: ìI recorded the vocals in the left channel and the instruments in the right, Beatles style.î That remains
the basic premise in every Bear production setup from 3/12 through July.
