Subject: Raw raunchy POWERFUL

This show has that raunchy nasty dig deep playing to it. Starts off with a Stranger that has a powerful sound to it. Jerry for sure enjoyed playing in NYC. Ramble on Rose has a sing a long during the refrain. ChinaCat with the I don't know how to describe it except to say hot hot hot
Anytime I see a show recorded By this taper I listen to it because he sure knew what he was doing.

Subject: Wow!

I was at this show and the surrounding shows starting at College Park Md. March 7. These were some of the best shows ever. Energy, song selection and sound recording. Listening back makes me miss Jerry that much more,,,if thats even possible..

Subject: I remember the show well

From start to finish the band was tight and right and the the songs flowed especially in the second set. The guys seemed more comfortable then in previous Garden gigs and some of the best versions I've ever heard or seen. I had the first set on tape for years but listening to the second set reminds me how hot this show was. Thanks for the memories!

Subject: Excellent stuff

I was at this show. When they broke out the Deep Elem Blues in the first set, the place was in awe.

This was a great show, one I'll always remember.

I have already downloaded the 16-bit version of this show, whioh sounds awesome. I recently upgraded my gear so I can listen to 24-bit recordings. Let me tell you, these guys do an awesome job. Download and find out for yourself ...
