Notes (from the taper);
* Someone borrowed my first set of this show and never returned it. Years ago, I made a 1st gen copy off a friend who plugged out of me. I recently checked it out and the first gen was okay and worth copying along with my master of the last two songs. It is what it is and sounds up front and close. enjoy

Notes;
- Crisp recording with an excellent guitar signature
- The mix is rough though ITAM, but gets significantly better as the show progresses.
- With the majority of this show being a 1st Gen source we normally wouldn't circulate it & waist everyones band width.  After doing significant a/b comparison with each source in circulation we felt this would be a good share as it faired the best in comparison.

Thanks;
- to Anon for sharing his masters & the outstanding transfers all while hiding out away from the Bay Area.
- to Rick Pauline, Rob Berger & David Minches for the patch source.
