For years I had an audience tape of this show. We were sitting literally 2nd to last row in the balcony with 8 out of town friends who came from New York, Worcester, Cobleskill and Boston College. I had 8th row left center every night from WBCN, but chose to sit with my friends way upstairs. I thought it was the best of the 3 nights, even though things got a little rowdy up front.

This is a wonderful mix of the show. Very well done.

Postscript: We had clearance back at BCN after the show and the Dead ended up coming up to hang out, less Jerry and Phil who were at the Sheraton next door. I went back to my apartment after an hour and went and recorded the festivities at the station where Weir and Sparky (one of the road crew) were talking up amyl nitrate. Little Bill who was the jock had to manipulate the mike knobs to keep such content to a minimum. Bill just came out with a wonderful documentary on WBCN called "The Revolution". And so it was!

I got to meet Sparky about 87 and gave him a copy of that radio show after the Music Hall. He flipped. Very appreciative. Sparky left the Dead after Rex passed on. Apparently they were very close.
