FYI: The SBD sounds terrible (lots of hiss), so I checked out the Gatto AUD (FOB, https://archive.org/details/gd79-01-11.gatto.kempka.308.sbeok.shnf).
Eyes Of The World

It's got mine too, and I second the late-era Dew as well. If any of you fine gents are going to the D S O Jubilee next week, let's meet up!

Copps Coliseum

This really is the business, IF you like MIDI Jerry and the sound of the band in a space this big. It's a fundamentally different sound from the '77 stuff, yeah, and I get why people aren't into it, but there are reasons so many people have voted for it. At least worth another listen.

As good as advertised. Apparently the show is uneven (Bobby sounds drunk as sunshine), but Jerry sounds unreal. His tone is a joy to listen to.

Is he sick? I know about the laryngitis at the start of this year...
