Total Time ::: 21.33

::: Quite fine, stereo, full-bodied AUD for its vintage. Check samples for adjudication or adulation.
::: Warts: Repaired dullspots & dropouts but surely missed a few. Taper cut off deck between trax.
::: CONTRAST CLAUSE: This is the Mk2 44.10kHz/16-bit version. The Mk1 96kHz/24-bit version is available elsewhere.
::: Almost certainly an incomplete recording of the NRPS set on this date.
::: 2 people list copies of this set at https://db.etreedb.org but for some reason it isn't commonly circulated.
::: Grateful Dead headlined this show & that recording (by the same taper) already circulates.
::: Marmaduke & David Nelson joined the Dead on the last 2 songs of their acoustic set, "Cold Jordan"&"Swing Low (Sweet Chariot)".
::: 2nd show of 3-nite Grateful Dead & NRPS Fillmore West run - August 17,18,19 (Mon/Tues/Weds).
::: Crappy poster scan at www.jerrygarcia.com/show/1970-08-18-fillmore-west-san-francisco-ca-usa
::: See these notes about the Dead recording for more lineage/source info https://db.etreedb.org/shn/142417
::: This is prior to the recording of the 1st NRPS album.
::: REQUEST: Looking for etree listing NRPS 1970-09-02 SF Matrix MSR>R>R>D>CDR. Nelson absent so Marmaduke&Jerry work hard & JG sings most backing vox. Can anyone help? If not, will upload my MSR>R>C>wav copy but it has some issues.

DimeTravel 454 ::: Thanks to the original taper & traders! Thanks to arfarf for doin' a little diggin'. ::: Corrections welcome ::: Great that after 47 years of listening to NRPS, I still ain't tired of these tunes. Some rippin' pedal steel from the man. Short & sweet & well worth hearing! Listen, enjoy, show appreciation, share, give, spread peace. Yrs truly, Knees
