Fresh transfer uncirculated source as of 4-24-2014

****I still only have the second set of this source. The first set snapped
during transfer. This show and these tapes were pretty sentimental to me. Of all
the Phish I've seen, this remains my favorite show. It was my second attempt at
recording these guys. I know I had about a dozen decks patched out of mine so
there has to be a copy around somewhere. If anyone knows of a copy anywhere, I
would love to get one. Please help if you can, ask around, someone has the tape in
a box in the closet or basement somewhere. Sorry it's only one set.
There used to be never ending debate on using audio DATs vs. DDS tape. This and
a few other audio DATs have broken during transfer, and for the most part, the DDS
have been fine. I guess my conclusion is that for me, DDS tape had much better long
term storage.****
