I recommend getting all the Ark Shows. April 21,22,& 23 and adding them to your 1969 collection.

Remarkable recording for the period.

Sounds like the show was lots of fun.

I recommend using your EQ during playback of most of the shows on the IA, this one included.

Windows Media Player has a 10 band EQ and SRS WOW effects that enhance the sound.

Here's one way to download this show:

The IA recommends users of Windows XP view this web-page with RealPlayer. RealPlayer is a free media player you can download at www.realplayer.com.

For easy streaming or downloading you should use RealPlayer.

Using RealPlayer to view this webpage, click the VBR M3U link to open the songs in the Playlist. If your Playlist is not open, open it by clicking the Playlist icon at the lower right hand corner of RealPlayer. Once the songs are in the Playlist, double click the song to play it, then click the record button at the lower left hand corner of Realplayer to record it.

When the red line reaches the other end click the stop button to download the song. Your song is in the RealPlayer Downloads folder. Repeat these steps for each song.

Eat, Drink, Be Merry and Listen to the GRATEFUL DEAD.

Thanks for the LOVE from 1969

- Crossfaded the splice between St. Stephen (track 4) and It's A Sin (track 5).
- Removed 27 seconds of redundant material from the Cryptical Envelopment Reprise (track 10).


D3 fixes:
- Smoothed two splices during the jams following The Eleven.
- Smoothed the splice during Caution (track 9) and the splice between Caution and Feedback (track 10)
