And I don't mean drunk. The BIODTL is just ... wow. I'm pretty sure it's Bobby here who is most obviously losing his mind to whatever he ate (tho he might not be the only one). He just can't stop singing along to the vibrations in his brain. The banter afterwards is great as Jerry announces a democratic scheme to decide what they should play next (or not!). The choice is Dancin' in the Streets. That was a wise choice.

Don't think about the sound quality, even though it's an AUD. The sound is amazingly clear for a '68 AUD tape. Be happy about what you have. I always loved the shows when the Cryptical reprise segued into Dark Star (2/28/69, for example), and this is no exception. Like the guy below says, light up and enjoy this piece of history. BTW, am I the only one to notice that the Dancin' switches sources? The source undoubtedly is a SBD from 2:34 or so until the end. I'm surprised the txt.
- ★★★★★ · '60s AUDs · laptaper · 2006
Don't discount '60's AUDs just because of their age - if anything, it weighs in favor of them. Earlier shows = smaller venues = better acoustics. Even though taping equipment and mikes have come a long way, an '80s or '90s AUD of a stadium show is going to sound like - well, a stadium (with certain notable exceptions, of course). :-)
