Back in 89 I happened to be on the west coast and had the good luck to record this show while visiting a friend. She had the only 1st gen copy, and has since died. I don't know what happened to her tape or if she made copies. Even if she did, this version will sound better. There must have been other tapers at this show as well. Are there other versions available? I like to hear other versions of shows I recorded!

Wonderful acoustic outdoor show.
Bright, transparent sound. Open on the high end with plenty of bottom on the acoustic guitar thanks to outstanding engineering. The crowd noise is not a serious distraction.
I ran out of tape so the last song in missing.
Funny how Neil demonstrates democratic values better than most American bands do these days.
A great American considering he is Canadian. Blame Canada!!
thanx chriss for setlist..
