"sbd"
This topic generates large amounts of message traffic on Deadlists. Briefly, the "Wall of Sound" was a fundamentally different type of sound system where each musician adjusted the levels of their own instruments. Owsley Stanley (Bear) claims that there can be no soundboard recordings because there wasn't a soundboard.

During these "retirement" concerts there were apparently many recordings made, some of which were released as "Steal Your Face". There is a rumor that this recording is a copy of a rough mix cassette made for SYF provided to the taping community by Jerry Wexler's son or nephew (or something like that), along with 10.18.74 and 10.20.74.

These shows came from the Frank's Picks tree, round 4

This version suffers from a high-pitched hiss and, more seriously, a sense of "something missing".
After a by-ear comparison to the other shned copy of 10/19 ("Fink/Ferguson," db ID 2270, it seems like the lower frequencies are what's missing.)
Notably, the 10/20/74 shns from the "Frank's Picks" source appear to have the same defects. (I have not listened to a copy of the 10/18/74, also from Frank's.)
