Revision notes:
First of course, thanks to Seth for getting this out to the rest of us. I just wanted it to flow a little better. I did not change the sound or remove any music. Apparently tape pauses were inserted between the non-segued tracks when this was copied to cassette, presumably to save space. If so what was left between songs is pretty damn random. Five seconds here, twenty there. Strangely almost two minutes of tuning was left at the end of El Paso and another minute after Big Railroad Blues. Approximately when the drug du jour was kicking in on Dubbing Day? Well, Deadheads...go figure.

Crossfades were performed to try to smooth transitions as much as possible with what was left. Unfortunately most come soon after the song ends and resume sometime before the start of the next song. So it's not applause crossfaded into applause, more like applause faded into random tuning or near-dead air. Some are a little more successful than others. Unless you're listening for them you may not even notice the transitions now though. Which is what happened to me when I went to listen to the finished show.

So that's the improvement I wanted, to get lost in Nebraska in 1973. And honestly, isn't that what we're all looking to do?

Finally, tracks were indexed to the beginning of the song instead of randomly near the cuts. My preference.


Editing notes:
Deleted 2 second blank at beginning.
Short crossfades after tracks without segues, no point in listing each. There would usually be a quick, sub-second blank bracketed by pause button noise to be deleted as well.
Two short crossfades at cuts after 104 Don't Ease Me In. The second didn't match no matter what but may be a little less obtrusive now.
Deleted 4 second silence and short crossfade at cut after 105 Box of Rain.
Crossfaded 4 second repeat after 112 El Paso.
Crossfaded 7 second repeat after 113 Big Railroad Blues.
The 114 Playing in the Band track ends exactly as Bobby finishes his set break announcement. No good way to crossfade that so I deleted the inevitable blank space and did what I could. Still noticeable but ever so slightly better.
One second crossfade after 201 tuning > They Love Each Other.
Added short fade after 211 Not Fade Away.
Deleted 1 second of dead air at the end.
