Generational and age decay causes some phasing in this source. The upfront and unique quality of this
recording justifies circulation even with the aformentioned inconsistencies. Hopefully this master will surface.

"I first heard this tape in the Fall of 1978 during my freshman year of college. I owned Blues for Allah and Wake

of the Flood, but had never heard a grateful Dead bootleg. This FOB was my bus ticket, plain and simple. The energy

of the crowd on this recording is what hooked me.

I received my copy of this tape from a friend who knew the taper's. At best my copy is a 2nd gen cassette, I recall

being told the taper's were 10th row center. To my ear this recording sounds like it was made closer to the stage

than the Glassberg MOTB version (an excellent recording), perhaps you'll agree.

Ultimately I wish for two things- first that you enjoy this recording as much as I have over these many years; and

secondly, that a lower generation (MAC?) comes to light. FWIW- the taper's lived in/near Syosset, NY.

Many thanks to **__** and his cohorts for preparing this for circulation. I had asked for a transfer for my own

listening, I am happy that this was deemed worthy enough for everyone to enjoy. -US_Blues"
