Nice tape. Jerry sounds absolutely wonderful, still healthy and happy. Very solid show from a very solid year of shows for the ol’ Garcia Band.

JGMF:

! Recording: symbols: % = recording discontinuity; / = clipped song; // = cut song; … = fade in/out; # = truncated timing; [x:xx] = recorded event time. The recorded event time immediately after the song or item name is an attempt at getting the “real” time of the event. So, a timing of [x:xx] right after a song title is an attempt to say how long the song really was, as represented on this recording.

! R: source: AUD (Schoeps CMC3-MK4) > DAT (playback on Panasonic SV-3800 > HHb CDR-850) > CDR > WAV > SHN.

! R: seeder comments: “Original CDR source recording levels varied over the course of the first set between different songs. A +3 dB gain was applied to each set individually followed by smaller increases for individual tracks in the first set with particularly lower levels to achieve a better balance in terms of the variability of the between song levels. No compression was involved and changes in amplitude were on the order of + 1 to + 2.5 dB. The individual sets were then tracked using CDWAV Editor. Thanks to D. Duquette for the CDR source. DAE (EAC 0.9 beta 4, offset corrected, secure mode) > level adjustments (soundforge 5) > tracking (cdwav) > SHN (shorten 3.4) > FTP via C.Ladner/candyman FTP. MisSHN in the Rain – 5/03.”

! R: great tape, though vocals are a little shrouded. Very upfront sound.

! P: s1t04 GOOMLW here as elsewhere Garcia sounds vigorous, lots of extra little vocal touches.

! P: s1t09 Deal is smokin’ 5 minute mark, Kemper mashing, Garcia wailing, just *wailing*. Very, very good.

! s1t0 (1) JG: “Thanks a lot, we’ll be back in a few minutes.”

! P: s2t02 HTC Jerry takes another go with the oppressors, while the rest of the band was expecting a few more chorus go-rounds. Tip of the cap to JG for energy, and the rest of the band for being there for him, not missing a beat.

! s2t10 (2) JG: “Thanks a lot. See y’all later.”
