additional background from Scott:

for those who care about this sort of thing:
not long ago, a very nice copy of this show surfaced that purportedly derived from
Dick Latvala's cassettes made directly from the master soundboard reels.
This copy has cuts at the beginning of "Morning Dew" and in "Sunshine Daydream",
and is also missing "Casey Jones" and "One More Saturday Night".

Very recently, a "new" copy has surfaced without the extraneous cassette generation and,
purportedly, is derived directly from the master soundboard reels. This copy is currently
beginning to circulate (10/00) via a "Tree" on The Well, and also has the cuts at the
beginning of "Morning Dew" and "Sunshine Daydream", but, includes "Casey Jones" and
"One More Saturday Night" which are missing from the previous version. The "new" copy,
however, introduces anomalies not present on the previous version. Specifically, there
are 2 drop-outs present during the banter which occurs between the aborted "Playin' in
the Band" and the actual "Playin' in the Band"(disc 2 track 5), a minor digi-snit at
approximately the 4:15 mark of "Morning Dew" (disc 2 track 6),as well as missing
the first several seconds of "Ship of Fools" (disc 3 track 1).

Subsequently,the 2 drop-outs in the banter between the "Playin' in the Band"'s
and the digi-snit in "Morning Dew" were patched in from the MSR>Cassette>DAT version.
That same MSR>C>D version also provided the first 10 seconds of "Ship of Fools".
The reel flips in "Morning Dew" and "Sunshine Daydream" were patched using an audience
source. Please be aware that the occassional static/crackle- an example of which occurs
during the banter between the end of the false start of "Playin' in the Band" and the
restart of "Playin'in the Band"- is present on both versions, so are presumed to be on
the master reels as well. Bottom line, I believe this to be the best available copy of
this show, compiled from 4 different sources,patched with TLC, and made possible through
the efforts of the usual group of suspects/mental patients.

Tagging notes:
Show information is embedded within the header of each flac file.
It will display on any player capable of directly playing flac
files. If converted to wav during processing, all tags will be
stripped, however audio data will remain unaffected. If you must
transcode to a lossy format, do so directly Flac > Lossy.
Use st5 to validate audio integrity.
Md5 values will change if tagging is altered.
