Transfer:

the tapes were retentioned, then the
azimuth was adjusted in the middle of the tape.
It was at that time, I realized the tape was
slow. I then cleaned and demagged my TASCAM
4 track with the pitch control and set the
speed by ear, which was checked by another
collector who said it sounded in key. I took
the opportunity to use the EQ on the Tascam
to turn up the treble a bit and the boomy
bass down a bit. The tapes were then played
into a Yamaha sound card and the sampling was
at 44.1/24. Soundforge 5.0 was used to maximize
the volume to 0db by increasing the volume
equally over the 4 sides by the amount of the
greatest peak sample.
After using r8brain to resample the files to
44.1/16, CDWAV and TLH were used to chop and
pack the files for consumption.

The first song is muddy however, it gets better
as time goes on and by the 3rd song, it's crisp!

-------------------------------------------------



The tape stops at the end of I'll Be Doggone > Wrong Way Feelin' around 11:30 and starts back up with the band being introduced as Bob Weir Band. Which makes me believe CC Rider is the beginning of the second set.

I do believe Around And Around was the last song that was played, because at the end you can faintly here Bobby say "Thank you all".


Despite what the tape label says i believe this is the first set
01-New Minglewood Blues
02-I Found Love
03-Salt Lake City
04-Shade Of Grey
05-Bombs Away
06-This Time Forever
07-Around And Around
01-crowd
02-I'll Be Doggone > Wrong Way Feelin'

and this is the second set
03-CC Rider
04-Bombs Away
05-Easy To Slip
01-Salt Lake City
02-I Found Love
03-It's All Over Now
04-Shade Of Grey
05-New Minglewood Blues
01-This Time Forever
02-Heaven Help The Fool
03-Around And Around


Audience is a bit chatty


From what I understand Golden Bear was a restaurant, during a few songs it sounds like I can hear silver wear against a plate, so i do believe this was recorded at Golden bear.

Some words from me:
I Bought this tape of eBay, from someone who was selling a deceased deadheads tapes, she listed all the tapes for sale as SBD/AUD mix, which was a complete lie.
Tape label says 2-15-78, so that is what I will have to believe this tape is. I compared a few tracks with other '78 shows and I don�t hear any particular crowd noise at the end of the tracks or beginning that match other dates, so I assume this is the correct date. I have never seen this date listed on any set list pages or databases, so I was a little skeptical about the date being correct. The Tape�s labels list tape 1 as set 1 and the other tape as set 2, but since there are duplicate songs in set 1 and 2 I assume set 1 was an early show and set 2 was a late show.
