This GD video was downloaded at TTD some time ago, where it was uploaded by taperguy27. Amazingly, after more than 3 years, and over 1,880 completes, the torrent is still active there (last I looked). More specifically, this was my very first Grateful Dead show (Go Blue Devils - Go to Hell Carolina!), so in addition to its having been performed at a stellar time in The Dead's career, it holds a very special place in my own headspace! Having enjoyed the audio of this show many times via the streaming feature at the Live Music Archive (http://www.archive.org/details/gd78-04-12.sbd.ashley-bertha.14085.sbeok.shnf), I was reading some of the reviews one day and found one of them to reference the availability of a TTD video of this show. In great haste, I joined TTD, and this became (also) my very first video download. The sound is of excellent quality, save the vocals/mic problem Jerry had during the first two songs. This is a black & white recording made by a group of Duke students who had apparently been given access for filming purposes, and is a highly-watchable, semi-pro-shot, multi-cam video.

The following is from taperguy27's original text [bracketed items are my addenda]:
