Choice show from a choice period.

If I see a Dave Usborne matrix, I try to grab it instantly. The guy has fantastic taste on the shows he does and he does absolutely amazing work in putting them together.

This one is how the Grateful Dead should be mixed: For the most part you can hear every note that Bob, Phil, and Jerry play, as God intended, without too loud keyboards and vocals obscuring the unending barrage of epiphanies that those guys had going.

A lot to like in this early 80s show and a great set list. Unfortunately, the second suffers because Jerry is too stoned and gets completely lost in Terrapin.

It's a shame because the Brent lineup pre-midi is my favorite overall 'sound' but Garcia's playing and presence is intolerably uneven.

I've often wondered if shows I went to that I thought were spectacular...really were...and this matrix proves that they were...Thank you!

See my other Silberman Nak 300 shotgun / Shame body / Mow D5 AUD review for my opinion of this highly recommended show. I've kept both this excellent matrix and the audience version since this is such a fabulous evening. Beautiful soundboard instrument clarity on this matrix which just adds to the fun.

Only at Sugaree so far and it has an excellent sound between a SBD and an AUD
