I can’t believe this is my first write-up of a Fall ’91 show. I haven’t really dug into this tour the way I need to. It’s good.

JGMF:
! Recording: symbols: % = recording discontinuity; / = clipped song; // = cut song; … = fade in/out; # = truncated timing; [ ] = 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.

! Review: Morse 19911114; Fusaro 1991. Morse: “If the ever-mutating Dead are draining some of Garcia’s energy lately, as he has said in recent interviews, then you can see why he’s refortified by his solo band. They’re a comfortable, even-keeled quintet that played a sublime oldies party for a near-sellout 12,000 fans last night. … The band is a lighter, more sweetly lyrical forum for Garcia, who avoids space jams in favor of tight, to-the-point soloing and deft rhythm chops. It’s the same modus operandi as the Dead: no talking, just music. But it’s a smaller band and he has less to compete against.”

! seeder comments: This recording is the same source as the shn set I circulated 4 years ago from a CDR source. This flac fileset is derived from a higher bit/sample rate digital transfer of a lineaged DAT without the EAC/DAE generation. The sound quality is spectacular for an audience recording and the performance is arguably one of the best of ’91 outside the Warfield homebase. Also this show features a rare live performance of “When The Hunter Gets Captured By The Game” (#8 [sic: 12] of only 10 [sic: 14] ever [sic: known versions]).
! R: really nice tape.
! P: Solid overall, though he (or I) ran out of gas toward the end.
! P: s1t03 THGCBTG excellent version, almost no lyrical flubs. See my “The Hunter Gets Captured by the Game” for more on this great tune.
! s1t08 (1) JG: “We’ll be back in a few minutes.”
