This show was one of the top 10 shows of 1896. The deadheads and the band were so high with energy that it caused Bob to start to laugh during Sugar Magnolia. The China>Rider was musically outstanding, except Jerry forgot the second stanza. Heck, you try going up on stage and do better. As I was one of the lucky Left Coasters to catch this gig, I did get to experience the power of the Right Coast's deadheads. Never saw a Left Coast show where the cloud clapped as the band went into China Cat Sunflower. I still smile when I listen to this show...just amazing!!!

Man, what a mess.

Even Peggy O sounds phoned-in. Not like "I'm not into this so I'm just going to perform in a lackluster workmanlike manner" phoned-in, but more like "Oh wait -- I'm not really on the phone, I'm on a big stage playing that famous song for a big audience ... or maybe it's that song I wrote? ... oh crap I think I am playing the wrong song ... did we do the bridge thing already? ... I'll just start it up again and see what happens ... is that a phone ringing? oh, it's just the keyboard ... oh geez I am on stage playing music! ... I hope there's some shrimp cocktail left over backstage when we finish this thing because they were tasty and I am pretty hungry right now."

Painful.

Recording quality is okay.

This copy is up there with many other great sounding aud's I prefer aud's to boards because never went to a show where I did not hear crowd.
