COMMENTS At 3:56 into the Drums after Alligator, they start singing Alligator vocals and at 4:35 in to it, Jerry joins in with a Caution type solo. Although this fragment circulates as "Fall 1968", "3/22/68 Detroit", and "May 1968", it is from an unlabeled reel. There is an entry for this set list on p. 164 of Volume 1 of The Deadhead's Taping Compendium. According to Rob Eaton: "There were 5 unlabeled 7 inch reels found in the Vault many years ago. Several contained very early versions of Stephen. The tape you describe is one of these unknown reels. The best estimate for a date would be April/May 1968 or spring '68."

COMMENTS The date and location of this recording are unknown. Its hard to say for sure, but it sounds like late 1968 - maybe September or October or thereabouts. The Drums has that Bol scat "Ya, Ya, Yakita, Yakita" in it.

COMMENTS The date and location of this recording are unknown. There is no Drums after the first Cryptical, The Other One has the standard lyrics, but Bobby stumbles with them as on 2-3-68. This recording is probably very close to that date.

hiss level significantly higher than the other disks in this set and some distortion on bass - looks to have more than 1 cassette generation. fairly frequent partial channel drop outs from what might be tape decay on some songs

COMMENTS The date and location of this recording are unknown. It begins with a cut right into the "doesn't seem to matter" line in Cryptical Envelopment. There is a six second or so drum solo intro to The Other One. At the "one man gathers what another man spills" break in St. Stephen, Jerry and maybe two others laugh, but there are not really any words.
