for those who care about this sort of thing:
not long ago, a very nice copy of this show surfaced that purportedly derived from Dick Latvala's cassettes made directly from the master soundboard reels. This copy has cuts at the beginning of "Morning Dew" and in "Sunshine Daydream", and is also missing "Casey Jones" and "One More Saturday Night". Very recently, a "new" copy has surfaced without the extraneous cassette generation and, purportedly, is derived directly from the master soundboard reels. This copy is currently beginning to circulate (10/00) via a "Tree" on The Well, and also has the cuts at the beginning of "Morning Dew" and "Sunshine Daydream", but, includes "Casey Jones" and "One More Saturday Night" which are missing from the previous version. The "new" copy,however, introduces anomalies not present on the previous version. Specifically, there are 2 drop-outs present during the banter which occurs between the aborted "Playin' in the Band" and the actual "Playin' in the Band"(disc 2 track 5),
a minor digi-snit at approximately the 4:15 mark of "Morning Dew" (disc 2 track 6),as well as missing the first several seconds of "Ship of Fools" (disc 3 track 1). Subsequently,the 2 drop-outs in the banter between the "Playin' in the Band"'s and the digi-snit in "Morning Dew" were patched in from the MSR>Cassette>DAT version. That same MSR>C>D version also provided the first 10 seconds of "Ship of Fools". The reel flips in "Morning Dew" and "Sunshine Daydream" were patched using an audience source. Please be aware that the occassional static/crackle- an example of which occurs during the banter between the end of the false start of "Playin' in the Band" and the restart of "Playin'in the Band"- is present on both versions, so are presumed to be on the master reels as well. Bottom line, I believe this to be the best available copy of this show, compiled from 4 different sources,patched with TLC, and made possible through the efforts of the usual group of suspects/mental patients.

Audience source supplies patch in "Morning Dew" from 0:21 thru 0:43, as well as the patch in "Sugar Magnolia" from 6:57 thru 7:22

The "meat" of the show is captured on Disc 2 and requires an 80 min disc

For the 80 minute disc impaired, I'd suggest that you break the current disc 2 in half, with the new 74 min disc 2 ending after "Let It Grow" and the new 74 min disc 3 containing Playin'>UJB>Morning Dew>UJB>Playin'.
