Notes:
This is a previously uncirculated soundboard direct recording of this show. All three sets and some of the break material were recorded in mono onto three 10" 1/4 track reels at 7.5ips. All three sets run seamlessly with nothing missing.

This was recorded surreptitiously from a monitoring feed in one of the executive offices at RCMH. All of the music was captured on the 10" reels except for the complete encore, where the 3rd reel ran out at 1:45 into "Uncle John's Band." Cassettes existed for the rest of the same feed, but were recorded on TDK D-60s without Dolby and sound vastly inferior to the reels. To keep this entire recording from a single source, the cassette transfers seamlessly patch the remainder of “Uncle John’s Band” to the end of the recording. Ditto for tracks 30 to 34 during break 1 and tracks 51 to 58 during break 2 which were not recorded on the 10" reels. Other than the patch to complete UJB, every second of all 3 sets is sourced from the 10" reels which do not suffer from any notable flaws.

I don't think anything this complete has circulated before. Even after all these years, the backstage segments with bandmembers and the Jerry's Kids telethon material is still relatively funny and sure to bring back memories for those of us who were there. And as I can testify, a whole lot we forgot about - like Bob Weir or Al Franken joking about underage girls in ways that don't sound funny anymore (if they ever did). Almost all of it is custom-tailored humor for Deadheads circa 1980, so if you take Franken & Davis in context, you may enjoy much of the previously uncirculated break material.

I've wanted to share this recording for a long time, but officially released material prevented me from doing so - despite all of this music being a significantly different mix than anything commercially available. If you enjoyed the previous night from this same source, you'll find this recording equally enjoyable.

Happy New Year!

Alan
