Moore's Mics (this night at least)
Haven't listened to this show yet, so I won't provide a rating at all. But, in response to the first reviewer's question, I think Moore did borrow mics for this show, and had a funny story about taping it in general.
Check out Gans' interviews with Moore (and Bertrando and Glassberg) at the link below, which I stumbled upon last year after reading about Jerry Moore's passing (RIP, thanks for recording and sharing all that you did...).

On another note, Shea's is still a gorgeous venue. I saw a sweet Phil Lesh and Friends show there in Nov 2002. Furthur played there in Feb 2010 as well...

Twin D
Twin D is an idiot. I had the second set of this show since 1980 and it was always one of my favorites. It certainly isn't 1970-1973 but it is very good for the period. Some of three transitions are great (Dark Star -->Not Fade). To say this is just a one star is ridiculous. Why don't you go get laid, or fuck your boyfriend Twin D.

A Night to Remember
This was quite a show in quite a place. Uncharacteristically, they started about an hour late. I was getting concerned because I was really taking flight when the thought occured to me that there might be a problem, like in New Haven the previous November. I found out later through a reliable source that Jerry had the job of telling Donna and Keith that they were done. (Contrary to what was written in 'Long Strange Trip') Donna headed home and Keith hung on for the remaining shows. Jerry was found meandering the hotel lobby minutes before the show was to begin. (A combination of being upset and under the infulence of his choice at the time) It took the band a few songs to find their stride and the show provided enough 'moments' to be considered a keeper. I have never heard a recording of this show that captures the energy of how I remember it, but this one here is in the neighborhood.

A+ sound and no Donna!
Don't get me wrong, I love plenty of Donna-era shows, but when the boys had an opportunity to play without her (ala December '73) it was special. Combine that with amazingly clear sound (although the vocals are quiet at times) and a late second set Dark Star and this show becomes an important artifact. Only two Dark Stars all year (1-10 is with Donna) and this one, while short, is thoughtful and deep. It comes out of a beautiful post-drums noodle>Other One and climbs into a rockin' NFA (although it seems Jerry wanted to explore it further).

My 1st Show
An experience I'll never forget. Phil was drinking Heinekens the whole show, and at one point I swear Jerry had to take a whiz and left the stage laughing. We heard that Donna was sick, but Keith was on fire. Phenomenal Sugaree and Darkstar. UB students were ushers; I knew where I wanted to go to college.

Sweetest Peggy-O solo I have ever heard
1/20/79- just came across this gem and every hair stood on end on my body- the first long solo break is simply outstanding- so beautiful it could bring tears (yep this happens to me from time to time when I hear some good stuff and it hits me again that he is dead and gone)
Add this solo to best jerry moments thread I started a few months ago

Horribly over-rated show
This show must be one of the all-time most over-rated Dead performances. Perhaps it's that quite a few tapers walked out on this chilly night with stellar auds, of which this is one of the best. Or perhaps because they played Dark Star, never mind it's arguably the lousiest version performed until, oh about 1992.
So here's what you've got:
1.) A *magnificent* aud recording
2.) A crap Dark Star
3.) An otherwise totally lackluster performance, that if it wasn't for the two previous conditions, would have drifted into well-deserved obscurity 27 years ago a la 1/21, 1/14, etc.

The Forever beautiful Shea's
If you never seen what this theater looks like, try to find a picture on the internet. Its the Mack Daddy , one of those few remaining very orninate/opulant rich old theaters they no longer build do to cost vs. seating capacity. Its Like a kings palace absolutely stunning-eclectic if you will. It reminds me of a church in Rome. The Fox theater and a few others survived the depression and beyond with investers smart enough to keep a few of these landmark venues around for the arts etc.
Imagine getting totally psychedelic in the Shea's during Dar Star (lucky fools). The show isn't on par with venue, just looking at set list and venue I thought Jerry was going to pull out the sweetest Peggy-O- and a smokin over the top Jack-a-Roe in this intimate gorgeous venue but not the case. There are some brillant moments like All Over Now and Other One has some nice guitar work. No secret but, Fall is where its at for 1979. If this show was near end of Oct. it probably would have been one of those out of this world interstellar cosmic nights. Although some of there best shows seem to be in venues not so assuming like old hockey areans, Unv. gym's and War Mem. type places.
The Winterland was an old ice skating areana collectivley some of the best shows ever played.
If you not familiar and want a good example of this check out Spring 1983 4-12, 13th and 15th.
As far as this show
3 for show
5 for venue
~Round up for Dark Star in a mind blowing setting its a 4.

Saved from Complete Obscurity by 30 minutes of Bliss
Forgive me, I had to listen to 1/19 on a much less impressive AUD than one typically available at etree; tho, I'm not sure if it affected my thoughts on that unremarkable show.
No Donna tonight.
1st Set: Well, why not repeat "Promised?" Jerry's work here is fragilly pleasing tho this is Not the roaring version I wanted to write about. "Sugaree" is a snoozer unless you're a fan of Garcia's quiet Verrry mellow solos. Thankfully, the final chorus gets a head of steam. "El Paso" is a nice call. "Peggy" is stabdard. Jerry's having fun outshining his band mebers on "All Over Now." Wow, the lack of variance in Billy & Mickey's work is frustrating. Saliva is probably dribbling from Keith right about now because there's not a peep to be heard from his piano. "Jack" & "NMB" pass without remark. Boy, how I long to hear the new arrangement versus this earthbound version. "Stagger" continues the blandness tho Weir meekly tries to add life with his slide. It's akin to the highest pitched canary. "Jack" is decent to end this subpar set.
2nd Set: Yep, eh, another "Miracle" to start us out. Into a weak clap-along "Bertha." "Good Lovin", good riddens. "Loser" in this meek capacity actually rings true. "Estimated," seriously, it's like a two-man band. No offense to Lesh, but he's pretty low in the mix and my current set-up is not overemphasizing bass. Finally, a moment of interest...There's some nice ethereal Jerry noodling which eases its way into "OO." "Drums" This twenty minute period of music drifts delicately downstream; it's all very poetically pastoral. Typical Bobby, rudely ruining this euphoria by bringing us back down for a mellow tho pleasing "NFA." Well, that is til the nail hits the blackboard aka bobby attempting a slide solo. Mercifully, it ends soon enough and we're comforted by the familiar opening licks of 'Magnolia.' A cheery, easy-going version that appropriately closes this baby out. Well, that is Not until we appreciate the day. Thankfully, "Saturday" is the encore because Bobby succeeds at destroying his voice for the evening, a stupid move considering the chilled-out vibe of the whole night.

Another great show from bygone days
The Sheas Dead show is one that is indelibly etched into my brain. This was my best show. Freezing cold saturday night in Buffalo. What a venue. Sheas is an amazing theater, like going back in time a hundred years. Sitting in the balcony, as if right on top of the band. High energy night. Certain songs stuck out in my mind after all these years. It's all over now. Not Fade Away. Saturday Night encore.
Being able to listen three decades later I only wish that when I was there I was paying better attention. Thanks Archive org, for letting me hear what I must have missed for whatever unnamed reasons.

Sugaree
I am listening to the stream of this show & instead of the bertha listed as the 2nd song there is a Sugaree which is what Deadbase says it should be. Also Bertha is in the second set. So why is Bertha listed here in the first set instead of Sugaree? The sound quality is excellent an audience recording & no Donna....

A Perennial favorite
This show has long been a favorite since I had the tape back then (did'nt see it though). Granted the first set is just ok, with a good Jack Straw. The Second set is some of my favorite GD, Mainly for the Estimated jam through Dark Star, including a seamless transition to a telepathic "Other One". There is a certain otherness to this sequence, maybe it was the phases of the moon, maybe it was no Donna, or the beautiful Sheas theater...but this is some prime Grateful Dead. Here the band plays as one, There is an ebb and flow and dynamic contrast which seems to cause the music to contract and expand. The recording quality is excellent, you can hear each member distinctly, this is one of the best aud recordings I've heard, and the crowd noise is minimal. My copy from a Dat tape is definitely from the same source but sounds a little better than this. Nagara Reel to Reel and Nak mics were listed as the recording equipment for my copy, so maybe that would clear up some of the confusion regarding the Sony D5 given here. Would get five stars if the rest was as good as the estimated- other one- dark star....check this one out.

Nice recording, uneven show
A nice artifact of a unique show. I'd call this an above average-to-excellent AUD recording. Some funny crowd comments. What's really a bummer is the fact that Jerry sounds tired, Donna's missing, and the band generally wastes a chance to open the show with Truckin', or maybe even encore it, which the audience is clearly shouting for. Jerry sounds half asleep for most of this show, but he wakes up for a brilliant Dark Star. Bobby does his best to keep things lively. Too bad they didn't play Shea's in say, '73.

In response to previous comment
I think the presence of the NAKs and Sony TC-D5M in the source was during converion from the DATs - not that they were there in the (beautiful) Shea's Theatre back in 1979. The mic positioning statement is misleading being placed at the end of the conversion string.
As a side note, this is regarded as one of the better shows on this winter tour. I highly recommend it.

source rig info ?
I didn't think the Sony D5M was out yet in '79. Didn't that come out in the early 80's?
Also, was Jerry M borrowing some Nak700's for this show? I didn't think he had those mics.
Anyone know for certain?
