    As I've listened from the first show in 1970, Jer's voice is changing, undeniably. As I rode in the car and heard a show on Sirius from 1985 the other day, as an indication of what is to come in my chronological journey, I heard this very same voice from Jerry. I noticed it is more tired than all the rest of the years, cracking often. Now in April of 1983, for the last couple of shows I have heard this voice.

    Sweet upgrade over the original source. I highly recommend this show. Garcia was definitely there to play. Loser, Cumberland and Looks Like Rain all have stellar Garcia solos. Although a bit fast, Eyes of the World is just shredded by Jerry. Also of note is a very hectic, psychotic space that deserves a listen. Throwing Stones is an excellent version and Dew is played well, but quite fast, look to 06-18-1983 for a great Dew in that time era. Check out this show...
