Notes from the original uplader: First off, I don’t know how this compares to the other copies that have circulated because I’ve never heard them. This is by no means perfect. There was some drama. The Weir set through the mid-point of Stop That Train, the mics were on a stand @ 7’ at which point, we got busted. We were lucky enough to hand security a blank tape so most of the set is salvaged. After they left, we started the rig back up and hand held from Like A Road until the end. I used “…” above to denote fades. Disc one and two are the affected discs. Disc three is pretty solid start to finish and worth the listen for sure. Killer Show! It sounds surprisingly upfront and present for lawn and barley any chatter during the Jerry sets.

  1. Sadly I never got to see The Grateful Dead or JGB live over here in the UK. But September 1989 was a great month for my wife and me, as we saw the fantastic double bill of Spirit and Wishbone Ash. I can’t recollect seeing either on the midnight cafe, but Wishbone Ash are still alive. Any chance of anything from them, please Mat?
