Source SBD>MR>?>D>CD>EAC>SHN patched with: AUD>MC>C>D>CD>EAC>SHN
Media CDR-SHN   2 discs
Notes Caveat:
--The SBD has flaws during the 2nd set, mainly for the last few minutes of Playin' through Passenger plus the encore. There must have been a problem with a recording device as the quality varies, at times muddying quite a bit in the higher frequencies. In addition, there were frequent and absolute drops in amplitude. The dropouts have been patched with an audience recording. I do not know whether this problem starts with the master recording. There are also numerous digisnits during the last few songs of the show, probably from the DAT lineage. The last half of Around & Around is supplied from the audience recording, due to some amplitude shifts plus an ever increasing number of digisnits. Aside from the flaws, the SBD is crisp, as if it has perhaps one analog generation.

Notes:
--FOTD cuts out; several minutes are probably missing
--frequent audience patches from near the end of Playin through Passenger and the first 2 minutes of Space (due to large dropouts)
--audience patch from 1:08 to 2:34 in Estimated (covers reel flip)
--digisnit @ 7:21 in Estimated
--digisnit @ 9:57 in Stella Blue
--numerous digisnits in Sugar Magnolia
--aud patch from 4:05 to end in Around & Around (due to some dropouts and a large number of digisnits)
