d4t07 – Eyes Of The World

Notes:

The Wall of Sound setup had a tendency to produce a slight metallic reverb in the vocals at times. This effect appears most prominent here during Black-Throated Wind, after a speaker had blown during Scarlet Begonias. The issue gets better during Row Jimmy and more thereafter. The third set vocals are pretty clean.

Big River and U.S. Blues have some soundboard mix fluctuations, typical for set openers in ’74. Given U.S. Blues was particularly bad initially, only the AUD plays up to the first chorus.

A couple clicks were removed in Half-Step and Eyes.

The first 7 seconds of Eyes strangely did not match, indicating one of the sources was subtly patched or there was an unusual cut. Only the SBD plays for this brief moment.

The sound on this and the 6/28 matrix is very similar. Jerry Moore’s tapes were ideal for these and blended well. A great pair of shows from the middle of the year, also featured on Dick’s Picks 12. Thank you to all involved!

Comments from thejerrysite.com:
(1) Ringo on drums

Tracking note: I tracked this recording with multiple “deadspace/tuning” tracks which by in large contain chatter/crowd/tuning. If you would like to avoid listening to the chatter and fit this otherwise 83 minute recording onto 80 minute CDR of music, eliminate a few of these deadspaces and you are set.
