Very slight SBD buzz.
Songs with * are without Jeff Mattson.  He showed up midway into Hesitation Blues, 
and then has very little vocals in the mix.
Klyph's vocals are pretty low at times.

Recorded by Steve Herman [sherman1967@yahoo.com], SBD>Tascam DA-P1>DAT.
48 kHz DAT originally transferred to CDR & SHN by Steve Herman, Tascam DA-P1>ZA2>WAV.
Original SHN files archived on disk were destroyed in the World Trade Center terrorist attacks.
New SHN files were made from extracted WAV files from the original CDRs, October 2002.

SBD recording is mono.
Very slight SBD buzz.
Klyph's vocals are pretty low at times.
Beginning of The Speed Of The Sound Of Loneliness fades in.

The band was set up in the small coffee house loft area upstairs from 
the main bar area of the Long Island Brewing Company.  
They were Wednesday night regulars.  Mike the chef was a major Dead Head and 
was a devoted listener to a Grateful Dead radio show I used to host out of 
Hofstra University, WRHU, 88.7 FM, Tuesdays, 7-9PM.  
In addition to that, my step-sister, Maryann, was attending bar in the coffee house loft.  
Free jugs of good beer were always waiting for me at my table front & center.  
The chef had two cute assistants that enjoyed the music and often endulged in natural elements.  
Life couldn't be sweeter during these Wednesday evenings.  How I ever got home can only 
be attributed to the emptiness of the Wantagh State Parkway at 2AM.  
My buddy Brian (not necessarily a Dead Head, but a good sport nonetheless) attended the show 
with me that evening.  It was nice to see that by the time they were fully rolling into Alligator, 
he was well immersed into the music and the scene.
