Notes: 

This is the same recording as the principal source for the Audience Devotional Tree
Round 26 - October, 2004.  That was a really nice patched version that made use of
the other circulating audience source to create the most complete audience version 
of this great show.

After downloading that version, I discovered my old cassette of the soundcheck.  To my ears,
my cassette sounded like perhaps it was a one-less generation than the principal source
of Audience Devotional Tree Round 26.  Also, happily, Sugaree is present in its entirety.
In addition, a little post-show chatter from Garcia, Graham and Cutler adds a little of the
ambience of this historic show to listening experience.

I was thrilled with the patch job done on Audience Devotional Tree Round 26, but my expertise 
doesn't extend into that realm.  This version has all the cuts and anomalies mentioned in the 
notes for Audience Devotional Tree Round 26, most of which were repaired with patches from 
the other source.  If someone out there thinks this is a worthy source for a remaster, 
it would be really cool to patch this with the other source to have an even more complete 
version of this amazing show.
