reminds me of someone bumping a phonograph

Funny how it goes from not too many shows around Christmas
to just take your pick as we Head towards New Years.
I wanted to find a show that I wasn't very familiar with and this one certainly qualifies.
Some blown lyrics with Bertha opener but the band takes it in stride.
Bertha>Good lovin' are hard rockin' indeed
BE Women- sweet version and Jerry is locked in on the vocals.
Garcia phrases his lyrics quite nicely
Cassidy- so nice, Donna ready and already primed
Nothing like her and Bobby sharing the vocals on this tune.
I don't know are they gonna rock Peggy-O because everything is way up-tempo.
They are sparking, best description I can give

Set 1

Bertha ->
Good Lovin'
Brown Eyed Women
Cassidy
Peggy-O
Looks Like Rain
Jerry getting mandolin sounds from his guitar
Dire Wolf
Tricky to find the just right version of this Standard
Garcia giving the vocals some what for
Give it up for DJG hanging toe to toe with Jerry vocally
This is a tasty effort!
"while the boys sing round the fire"
Wow, all the Dead Air seems to be excised
so the effect is like a freaking roller coaster.
Drummers are in a good spot on this recording.
Nice funky feel for the
Passenger
I still consider this a real gem from the band
perfect for this time period
JAM
wow that was really tight ending on the wha-wha of Garcia
Candyman
This is the most introspective tune of the night so far
El Paso
Friend Of The Devil
The Music Never Stopped
Beautiful , superb and tight music jam to close it

Set 2
THIS SPEAKS FOR ITSELF
Cold Rain And Snow
Lazy Lightnin' ->
Supplication

The counterpoint jam by Keith
He's Gone
GD church for sure
Truckin' ->
Wharf Rat ->
Around And Around
Gonna drop this one as a review but also put it up on the GD Forum. Where it is all so easy to forget that this is why
the whole DEAL exists. Myself of course included:

TODAY is the day of Salvation...

smokin show.jerry and the band are on fire.killer sets with gr8 choice of tunes played on high octane.a must listen to show.

I thought it was one of the best Peggy-o, Also AWESOME ESTIMATED! Not a huge fan of keith but he's makin it happen here

I agree with other reviewers that this is the cleanest version (as the Bertha usually is). However, to correct for the dropouts in LL from 1:11 to 1:15, substitute the LL > Supp from the "Anonymous" SBD (thank you, JCotsman). This isn't an AUD patch--the dropouts just aren't on this SBD. Unfortunately, the Gans-Redbeard version has the same dropouts.

If public uploads were possible, I'd add my patched version. If anyone who has access wants the files: gratefuldiver11@gmail.com.

Incredible both in performance and sound quality. Thanks Jay.

Great second set. I like the song selection. But who cut the f-word out of wharf rat?

bast here. u no it.

This sounds better. 5 stars for better.

improvement over the other source for this date. You really get the feeling you are in a hall with this version. I like it.

Superb Bertha Remaster cleans-up bass and kick nicely and there is no appreciable hiss.

Was lucky enough to witness the band one in spades that night.

There some cuts and drop outs in the recording and there's some lapses in concentration on the band's part, but overall, it's the epitome of liquid fire GD at their shredding best. The entire second set is resplendent in urban atmospheric glory and evanescent in display. Truckin' and Around are major skullf**ks.

Enjoy.
