Notes:
– Info on taping gear comes from another list (Tim McKenzie’s?). Microphone information
(but not location) was written on the master cassette J-card, but some question whether it
is correct. Nice tape.
– Pretty good performance, IMO not as good as the night before, though there are some
typically great moments here (lots of fanning, e.g. in 14-min. mark of Simple Twist, around
6-min. mark of Let it Rock, and 7-min. mark of Sugaree).
– d1t04 TWLWMYD mix adjustments first two minutes.
– d1t05 Simple Twist weird banging noise during bass solo.

Thanks Jon Pasternak & Charlie McGuth for organizing this project!

So the story goes: I answered an ad on Craigslist for 500 free Grateful Dead tapes.
On picking them up from the taper, I’m also informed he and a friend recorded other bands through the 70’s.
These were never circulated, and deemed inferior in quality.
When I inquired about digitizing his masters, he laughingly obliged.
Most of the old Ampex and BASF tapes are in poor shape, several completely off the spool, and many squealing badly.
I will be attempting to bake some of them.
I will be presenting the ones of superior quality only, out of the initial batch he loaned me.
I do believe these shows will be lovingly embraced by the Dime community, and will be shared here exclusively.
