Notes:
- there is a slight tinny/tunnel quality to the sound.  the spectral profile shows an abrupt cut off in the usual background noise signature at ~5kHz with a gradual resumption of noise from 18kHz increasing in intensity up to the upper limit of 22kHz.  This might suggest some signal processing has been done somewhere in the lineage.
- there is some audible, though minor, clipping (Easy Wind for example)

DEADLISTS COMMENTS  The circulating tape breaks off during Cosmic Charlie but tn lists another 35 minutes.  The tape which contains this list is labeled "1/29/70" but 1/30/70 is the correct date.  According to Tom Constanten this was his last performance as a regular member of the band (Between Rock & Hard Places p. 84).  Back at their hotel afterward, the Dead were "busted down on Bourbon St."    Fleetwood Mac and The Flock were also on the bill (DeadBase
IX).

Eaton lists (mistakenly as "1/29/70"):

01/29/70 The Warehouse, New Orleans La - complete   4.7, 128min, Sbd, A1D0, Reel M->Cass  1->Dat  0, 48k, 7inch Master Reel@7.5ips 1/2trk->Tascam 122mkIII Cass 1st Gen->3800 x 0

If Eaton's timing is correct there is still a half hour of this show not circulating.
