Comments: Previously uncirculated SBD with minimal hiss (despite the lineage) and pauses between most tracks occasionally clipping the beginning of the track.
Excellent horny performance of TWLWMYD and some extended blazing soloing during I’ll Take A Melody.
The total recording was about 85 minutes. If you want you can fit the first 8 tracks on a single 80 minute disc and then just burn a single track disc 2 with filler.
Hi Mat. First, my heartfelt thanks for all the great uploads. I don’t know where you get the time or the energy ! This latest one, for Jerry Garcia and Reconstruction, on 1979-06-08, is a puzzler, as regards location. You give it as “Rheem Theater, Moraga, CA.” However, on an upload to YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qq19AtNBJko) the location is given as “Rio Theater, Rodeo, CA.” Do you know what has happened here ?
Regards, Michael.
I found this link to Jerry Garcia’s Middle Finger which has some explanations.

I love sites like that. I wish I had the patience to do that kind of research. I have made the appropriate changes to my page. Thanks for the heads up.
Couldn’t find the link for this one… Thanks for sharing all these 1979 shows!
