In March, 1978, Greg Douglass' hand lost a battle with a pane
of glass, severing several tendons and arteries. At the time, there was a
chance he would never play guitar again, but doctors were able to repair
most of the damage via microsurgery.
Greg's friends got together to hold a benefit to help with his medical
expenses, with John Cipollina acting as musical director and playing in all
three bands. Terry was joined by Byron Allred's (Steve Miller Band) only
appearance as a Pirate. Rocky included an early version of the band with
Mike Varney and Greg Anton. This was SDS' second (and last) gig and
features Nick Gravenites, Pete Sears, Jim McPherson and David Weber
(Copperhead), Jarrett Washington (Freelight) and Marcus David (Nick G).
The sets for two of the bands have never been circulated, the third (SDS)
has not been torrented. The recording is pretty good considering it was from
a mono cassette with a built in condenser microphone. The digital transfer
was made directly from the cassette master. Some EQ was used to improve the
sound. Some between song patter was edited out, this was a fault on the
original recording.

John Lee Hooker is on tracks 1-8 and 13-15.
John Cipollina is on tracks 10-12 (and maybe on 15 but he doesn't take any solos)
A scan of my ticket to the show is included in the torrent.
This is definitely not the whole show. Track 1 fades in - who knows what was played before that song? Track 8 sounds like the end of the set and track 9 sounds like the beginning of the encores. At the end of track 15 there is less than a second of the beginning of another song, but what is offered here is all I captured that night.
Audience recording by Easy Ed. Crappy little Sony stereo mike that sold for under $100 placed on the roof of the bathrooms, left side of the club (facing the stage) about midway back in a club that held maybe 200-250 people > Sony D6 cassette recorder Sony UX-PRO90 cassette (Dolby B on)
Transfer by Easy Ed: Sony TC-K71 (Dolby off) > Presonus Firepod > firewire > PC > Sound Forge 8 (24 bit, track, normalize to peak levels, change bit length, export to .wav files) > .wav files > FLAC level 8 encoding align on sector boundaries. Not burned to cdr - no EAC.
Recording with Dolby B boosts high frequencies by 10dB. Playing back with Dolby B cuts high frequencies by 10dB. But Dolby circuits vary from machine to machine and I didn't hear any tape hiss that seemed to need reducing so I transferred this with Dolby off, which resulted in a little extra brightness to the recording, which I deemed acceptable.

NOTES: I received a copy of this a while back. It was in bad shape when I got it. I sent it to a friend to fix it up and he did a great job. This is the fixed up version. I vined it a while back to a few people in a small Grateful Dead group I belong to. I don't think it has been passed around outside that group though (I traded it to 1 or 2 people though). I thought this was a good place to vine it and get it circulated more. It's a very cool show and worth having. Here is the info from the person who fixed it up.
Editing & mastering done by The Wizard
This one exhibited classic battery death speedup. I built a speed reduction curve from -2.0%>-15.0% and this seemed to do a pretty good job. It was a bit flat so I EQ'ed to bring up the midrange and top a bit. A light continuos noise filter was used to take the edge off the tape hiss. Levels were low so the show was normalized to 0 dB. The right channel was brought up 2.8 dB to match the left. Various glitches & sector boundary errors were corrected. All editing was done with DC5 software.

Remaster Notes: 5/2/05 by "DynacoST70"
Raised Pitch by 1 Semitone on all tracks. The first thing I noticed upon
listening to this is the speed was very slow.
Remastered with Ozone 3: EQ and level balance (balance L to R off by 3-4db
on tracks 7-10).
There is still some NR artifacts from the previous incarnation of this
fileset.
Sector boundaries checked and fixed after pitch correction.
Thanks to the original poster for sharing this.
