Grateful Dead
09/11/74
Alexandra Palace, London, England

This is the third version to emerge recently.

First was the big jam - Seastones>Eyes>Wharf Rat, + A&A - via David Gans
Second was an almost complete SB version
Third is this version. It is 95% based on version #2, but with audience patches in 3 places:

(A). To cover some mix problems in Scarlet Begonias
(B). To provide the first 15 minutes of Phil & Ned, whcih was missing from version #2
(C). To provide Sunshine Daydream and US Blues, also missing from version #2

A small number of minor flaws in version #2 were also repaired, although some remain.

Mostly what you are hearing is UNCHANGED from version #2.

Portions of this show were released as part of Dick's Picks #7

And version #3 (this version) has:

The master audience recording is apparantly lost and the 1st gen is "with a guy who doesn't trade anymore".

The following editing by Hanno in order to compile the new version:

the following defects of the SBD tape were fixed (H.B., 5/01):
- d1t1 Scarlet Begonias, uneven mix from minute 2 to 3 patched from AUD/2
- d2t1/2 corrected track ID between Roses and Playing, fixed hiccup at the start of Playing
- Seastones 0:00 - 15:20 patched from AUD/2
- Sunshine Daydream - end of show patched from AUD/2
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The following editing by Alasdair in order to clean up/retrack the new version:

- Hanno pointed out that there are between-track flaws in the big jam in version #2. In a wave editor you could see the tiny fade-in (of approximately 1/10th of a second) at the start of Eyes and Wharf Rat. These are noticeable and irritating flaws. Version #1 seems to be a different mix (mostly with regard to the stereo imaging, which is narrower in version #1. Version #2 also sounds a little cleaner, so I have repaired as best I can the fade-in flaws on Eyes and Wharf Rat, with approximately 1/10th second patch from version #1. There was also a tiny glitch 1250 samples into the jam following Eyes (timing from version #2), which was repaired similarly.

d1t06 (Jack Straw): click @ 4:24
d1t09 (Tenn Jed) : retracked
d1t10 (Big River : retracked

d2t02 (PITB): glitch @ 0:01
d2t03 (Phil & Ned): digi-clicks @ 0:48, 0:48, 0:54, 1:20, 1:51 (slight crackle remains), 4:01, 7:20, crackles @ 2:51, 3:14, 4:17, (the thud which remains was also probably part of the analogue crackling here), 6:41 (as 4:17), 15:15, 11:30, 13:52, 15:03, 15:15. These timings run into d2t04, whcih I later tracked separately.

d3t01 (Eyes) : Fade-in at very start was repaired with matching section from Gans version.
d3t03 (Space) : Glitch at 1250 samples in (on version #2) was repaired with matching section from Gans version.
d3t04 (Wharf Rat) : Fade-in at very start was repaired with matching section from Gans version.
d3t05 (A&A) clicks @ 0:12 reduced, repeated section @ 4:45 removed, some silence added at start
d3t09 (USB) crackles @ 1:24, 5:19, click @ 5:18, 5:18, 5:21, 5:22

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Taking Phil & Ned>Seastones as a whole, Billy comes in at 11:39 and Guitarists from 11:55 (??) Then first Eyes hints come in at 34:35, 39:05. I split the track into 2 ("Phil & Ned" and "Seastones") mostly because I find CD tracks of this length quite unmanageable; sometimes I want to move around the track quicker. I also retracked Eyes>jam>Wharf Rat to include Stronger Than Dirt as a separate track, for the same reason.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Remaining flaws:

d1t02 (Mexicali): crackle @ 2:42
d1t03 (BEW): quiet crackle @ 3:52
d1t10 (Big River): crackle @ 3:01

d2t03 (Phil & Ned): crackle @ 5:40 (quiet), 9:08 (this is similar to those removed @ 4:17 & 6:41, and is perhaps from analogue recording or playback circuitry. If I though it was from the PA I would have left it alone). Also 10:18 (very quiet, Left channel), 10:24 & 10:25 (quiet, Right channel), 10:28, 10:31, 11:30 (sounds like a scratched record, but less noise than the original), 12:52 (quiet), 13:52 (also partially reduced from original), 15:03 (Left channel, partly reduced)

d2t03 (Phil & Ned): distortion (overload) @ 3:40, 6:13, several instances 7:20-7:50, 9:00-9:45, 11:40-12:18, 15:17
(All noted Phil & Ned flaws are in the audience portion, there are some glitches (eq at 22:01) in the SB portion, but it is in the nature of Seastones that glitches may not in fact be glitches, and I chose to leave the SB portion alone. There are no majorly disturbing glitches in this part anyway LOL).

d3t01 (Eyes): click @ 0:18, Jerry's guitar distorts @ 4:08, possible glitch @7:19??, clicks @ 9:15, 9:16, 15:39, possible splice @ 16:25??, click @21:43
