I have always wondered if there would have been more shows as good as this one if technology had been better in the 70's. If you notice, this show, the "best show ever" also has the best access to very clean and quality SBD. Can listen to the whole show right now on youtube. know what I mean? coincedence?

@pcburgh01 You can stream sound board recordings at archive.org. I can't remember not being able to find a show I was looking for there. Not to say it is 100% complete, but it's always had what I'm looking for.

So where is the mix from - I've got this from a few different sources but this feels like a hybrid SNBD+AUD....? How can I get a copy?

Freakin love this set from this night....it's a classic for a reason!

[vatosplace]

@SoPhast You can download or stream the show from archive.org in the Grateful Dead audio archives. I believe this copy to be a soundboard. I downloaded this show in 2004 or 2005.

Phill is dropping killer bass bombs! (and acid)Its the "space between" the notes that give me the chills, you can hear them listening if you dig what i mean.

@vatosplace yah I know, but the casual fan wouldn't seek out those shows. This show was circulated to a much higher degree. That's all I was alluding to. Thanks for the link though. I am on frequently though. ;) - Be grateful. Peace.

@pcburgh01 I agree man, but I also think that young heads like me will hear 5/8/77 is the best show so they go download it... and of course it rocks! I think its the best or most popular show partially because everyone thinks it is.. IMO 5/5/77 is better and there are allot of dates around the spring of 77' that are surley comperable. They were on fire that spring!

@vatosplace I love archive.org. The only shows that they have unposted are ones that they have remastered and released as CD's or paid downloads. I was so happy to find a.o and be able to listen to my 1st show on a great soundboard for the first time since I saw it. ...Blew me away! Again!

@pcburgh01 There's no question recordings like this would help any show but there's also no doubt about the strength of this second set. This Scarlet Begonias is perfectly played like no other and the Morning Dew later in the set is just as incredible.
