Notes:

- d1, I removed most of the dead air as quite frankly, it was an annoyance.
  boosted level by 4.48 decibels in right channel.  a small section was cut
  from the start of d1t03, where there was distortion.  hiss reduction was
  applied throughout.
- d2, t02 a number of volume adjustments in both channels, t03 some volume
  adjustments in first 2:13 minutes, t07 boosted both channel by 3 decibels.
  t08 boosted right channel by 2 decibels. closed several small gaps between
  t05 & t06.  hiss reduction applied throughout
- a few miscellaneous clicks removed
- final mastering with iZotope Ozone

Comments from Deadlists Project:

This is Crosby, Garcia, Lesh & Hart, sometimes known as David And The Dorks.  
SET 1 is an afternoon rehearsal and soundcheck.  SET 2 is the live set.

Jerry Garcia & Friends were advertised at the Matrix on December 15, 16 & 17.  
In the pause after the snatch of Eight Miles High vocals rehearsal Crosby
is heard asking someone to "put limiters on it.  I overblew their mics last
night."  The comment implies he's talking on the second night of the run,
which would make this the 16th rather than the 15th; however, these tapes
have always circulated dated "12/15/70."

The first four tunes are all Crosby's.  The Jam out of Triad is choice.  
Bertha is a very early version with a few bungled lyrics.  Deep Elem Blues
is a unique arrangement heavily influenced by Crosby's rhythm guitar.
