This was an unscheduled performance. The funky Meters filled in at the last minute for Bob Weir and Rob Wasserman after Weir had to cancel his Jazzfest appearance.  The Funky Meters also played the next day on the same stage (with a different setlist).  http://jazzfest.swagland.com/cubes/1994/94%20April%2028.htm

A slightly hissy SBD circulates, alternately claimed to be DAT > C or C > DAT (but the recordings are identical).  This recording picks up the crowd but also the energy of the performance, and has more punch than the SBD, if less clarity.  Unfortunately, there was a gap near the end of Little Old Money Marker that ran 9:20, which was patched with the SHNID 169548 SBD source.

Enjoy!
