Notes from the original uploader:
This Jerry show has never circulated in any form – not even an audience recording.
According to the Jerrysite, they opened with Harder They Come. I cannot verify that
but it is not present on this recording. The only notable flaw on this recording
is a glitch at 8:32 into Russian Lullaby, during John Kahn’s bass solo with an
unknown amount missing. This is a mono soundboard recording that is very clean
considering the lineage.

After hearing this Rhapsody In Red over the Labor Day weekend, I had to have this.
It is truly off the hook with Jerry shredding up a storm! Check it out!
Thank you to Alan!

comment: 60 minutes. c- quality. voices, not hi-fi.
seems like a hotel room between early and late shows.
Slight NR used to remove tape hiss. rough sound, maybe hand held. lots of background activity.
unique view of ‘day in the life’…
a tape trade from europe. back in the day. – chuck.
