A terrific recording from what sounds like a half-empty Valentines, which makes for a quiet crowd.  The tracking is somewhat arbitrary, it being The Slip, and you'll hear bits and pieces of other things thrown in the mix.  These are also early versions of songs, some without the lyrics they later got.  Thanks to Harry McQuillen for help with the setlist.

The Slip opened for Dr. Didg, which was also recorded (https://etreedb.org/shn/150457).  Thanks to Tom Reizes for both recordings.

Enjoy!

EEE NOTES: Whitney Padget recorded this show using Rob Boyle's rig. I 
patched out of him. There was a problem with the line out of Whit's 
DAT and I didn't get the last tune. Whit burned me an audio CD from 
his master shortly after HSMF. The currently circulating source is 
unknown with EAC: <a href="http://db.etree.org/shninfo_detail.php?shnid=3406">http://db.etree.org/shninfo_detail.php?shnid=3406</a>
I have the SBD of this set too, but I like the AUD better, and I 
figured at least this is a known source. Andy Butler is an old school 
New Orleans piano player. It started to rain during Cumulus. Listen for 
EB saying what we were all thinking after Cumulus, and me calling EB out. 
Taper humor.
