Notes

"Mason B. Taylor was a taper from Chicago that recorded concerts by many bands in the Chicagoland area and on Dead tours. He used a Nakamichi 550 with Nakamichi 300 mics with shotgun capsules for most of his earlier recordings. In later years he used Sony D-5 and Sony D-3 cassette recorders with Nakamichi 300 mics.

Mason captured spectacular musical moments and loved to share them with his closest friends. In honor of Mason and all the love he put into his recordings we are now able to share these moments with those who can appreciate them most.

As the shows get uploaded we would love for you to share your stories about the epic times the music evokes so we can all dial back into that moment when the magic was happening.

Thanks to Mason’s family and his Chicago and Cleveland friends for opening up Mason’s Jar…"

I was a 18 years old at the time of this show. I did not know much about the Dead at this period in my life. I did have the Touch of Grey Album. As the years past I and the help of Sirus channel 23 I became a fan of their Music, I was so happy to find this show here and was able to downloaded it. The sound is amazing. Thanks to the Mason Taylor collection.

Best recording of this show I have ever heard. Jerry's vocals shine, and the dynamics are awesome. Way to go Mason, and thanks for sharing with all of us. I talked with some tapers there, perhaps one was you. See ya on the other side.
May Peace Be Yours,
Grateful James
