Notes:

- This has been provided by an anonymous source and has NEVER circulated before.
- The guys are having fun as well as being serious.  This sounds as crisp as the day it was recorded.
- A little NR has been used on track 1.  The levels were very low in parts and when raised introduced some hiss.
- There was a lot of distortion in sections of track 6, most of which has been eliminated.
- Rather than track out each individual "song" they have been kept together so as to keep the flow going.
- Of particular interest are "Seasons Of My Heart" and "Sawmill" which both feature some tasty pedal steel from Garcia.
- All files have been tagged.
* This is from the Aoxomoxoa sessions.  This is in full stereo and sounds like a  finished version.
