This is a previously uncirculated partial soundboard of this '76 Rolling Thunder Revue show. The only other version was an audience source [LB-00061]. It is incomplete but it is a significant improvement over the audience version (LosslessBob grades the limited audience source as a B). I, however, do not own a copy of LB-00061 so no comparison was made.
Here is the account that accompanies this (as well as another) soundboard:

I recommend Ray Padgett's always informative and entertaining blog.
I am only uploading the April 29 RTR tracks and not the other stuff that was tacked on. I also fixed the tagging (the tracks were mistakenly dated as April 26) & I created a .ffp file. Otherwise, the tracks are as offered by Padgett. The tracks are not seamless, as tuning & talking between tunes has been often edited out. And there are occasional gaps between tracks. Unfortunately, this lack of seamlessness removed any conversation that might been a fingerprint for the show, e.g., before 'Stuck Inside of Mobile' the crowd shouted for 'Hurricane' but Dylan said "Hurricane’s out now, we don’t have to sing that no more."
So, in summary: marvelous sound but incomplete and edited so it's not seamless. I think the tunes are edited so there is no pause or room to breathe. Grateful thanks but, please, sir, may I hear the entire recording?
