This is one of the best audience recordings I have ever heard. It must be FOB and dead center, too. It's remarkable. It does have a few warts, all in the left channel, which has been patched with the right channel. About 30 seconds in total is mono, at the beginning of Don't Want You No More and the middle of No One To Run With. The end of Whipping Post is, alas, missing.
Bruce Barnum was a Deadhead and an avid taper from the early 1980’s until his death in 2017 at age 48. Over the years, he taped dozens of concerts throughout the Northeast, some of which have not been heard since then.
After his death, about 60 of his master cassettes turned up in a used record store in Hudson, NY. Some were bought by random people nostalgic for the days of cassettes. The rest were purchased by a fellow Deadhead and archivist. Bruce’s daughter, Jessica, had more, and was kind enough to lend them to be digitized. Many of these recordings sound excellent for their age. They are Bruce's legacy.
Enjoy!
