notes

- d2t04 (changed tapes, toward end, the casual listner will not pick it out)

- This whole show was quite a swan song for Grateful Dead shows at Merriweather

- This recording was done to capture as much as possable. There were no tape flips requiring fast forwarding or rewinding during the actual recording. Side A of the firsttape was recorded then Side A of the second cassette. Everything was then fast forwarded at the break and the B Sides were recorded. Very little crowd noise has been removed. For the second set Side B of second tape was used first, then Side B of the first tape. This would leave most of the blank tape on Side A of the second tape, which I would then wind past where the set ended to get the encore.

- d3t03 Didn't count on two so there is a split in Baby Blue. (changed tapes towards end, very appropriate for such a great venue)



- It wouldn't be Grateful Dead without long pauses between tunes.
