Welcome to Volume 62 of the MRDR Master Series, the raw transfer of this volume featuring Country Joe McDonald and Tom Constanten has previously been uploaded to TTD in November 2018 by my friend Kingrue who does a fantastic job releasing many hard to find items. I encourage you to make your way to TTD and take a run through his archives.

In 2018 MRDR sent out the master raw capture to a number of folks and we decided to revisit it as part of the MRDR Master Series.

It's an excellent capture and since it has been a year and a half since the orignal posting we decided to tweak the original raw transfer ever so slightly to punch up a few frequencies with this release.

If you prefer the original untouched transfer, differences aren't dramatic and aren't releasing to specifically improve any previous releases, please make your way over to TTD and grab it there. I don't think this has appeared here and wanted to give everyone a chance to acquire it.

We've also taken this opportunity to include the usual cache of photos in the artwork taken at the show.
