- ★★★★★ · this retires our previous work · doses4u · 2010
This source retire GEMS previous 2nd set multi gen copy. Alan tape seems to be the only recording in circulation. Ive run across a 7th gen (jay wests tape)..a 4th gen, as noted in text , used as reference, and this 1st gen, which stand as the surviving masters. It's my humble opinion that this is one of the finest Dear Mr. Fantasy >Hey Jude the GD ever played. It's very emotional. Cheers, Jamie Waddell E

- ★★★★★ · My only Dead show...FIRST Built to Last! · Craig Hoffmann · 2023
I was stationed in San Antonio but couldn't round up even one friend to go with, but that didn't stop me. Neither did my broken down Beetle! Some KIND Deadheads gave me a ride the remainder of the way! EVERY Dead-related show I've seen since still contains that magic...called kindness. Now, someday lemme tell you of how I met and spoke with Bobby in Vegas back on '02! NFA!
- ★★★★ · Laid back but still cookin' · sugareesupreme · 2013
It's kind of a rough audience tape but the show makes it worth a listen. Nothing stellar, just good ol' Grateful Dead sounding sweet. Jerry is in good voice, which was not the case during the long East Coast tour that ended with the Rainforest Benefit at MSG the preceding September. Show jumps with a Cold Rain > Minglewood opener, but first set is pretty sleepy until TMNS brings out some sparkle. Again, understated performances but still solid.
