Notes
Comments:

Moby Grape's Fillmore debut. Direct stereo line feed with an additional room microphone mixed into the left channel. Gurman's reel was dubbed onto recycled tape. It didn't get 100% erased in the process, so bleed through of a previous recording can be heard during a few quiet areas between songs and a substantial noise floor is present throughout. Still, this sounds substantially clearer than every other source I've encountered. 7.5ips master reels of the other acts on the bill (Big Mama Thornton & Jefferson Airplane) survive in Bill Graham's archive, but the Moby Grape masters are presumed to be lost.

Alan Bershaw



Notes:

- Almost all of the background noise has been removed
- I also repaired a number of small dropouts
- The first track sounds a little rough but the sound improves as the set moves along.



Thanks to Alan for passing this to me.
