Notes:
- This is not a great recording, but it is not awful and it certainly
compares favorably with the other source I have, which is derived from
Walter Keenan's xx gen cassette, sounds muddier, runs slower and is less
complete (missing last three songs). Someone with good ears should check
the pitch on this.
- The show itself is very high energy and good, as you might expect from
the great JGB month of February 1980. Let it Rock and Sugaree are both
very hot, That's Alright Mama and Positively 4th Street are hot and great
to hear, and generally I bet a better-sounding source would make this a
big hit with the fans.  This will have to do for now, and thanks go out
to Scott Russell for transferring this source.
- numerous tunes clip in and/or out;
- s1t01 HSII cuts in;
- s1t02 FOTD L channel out first :04; some mic adjustments; static @ 1:22-
1:33;
- s1t04 levels much hotter on LIR;
- s2t03 ITAM cuts out, probably missing a few minutes;
- s2t04 4th Street low levels to start; splice/gap @ 8:19;
- s2t07 static in Masterpiece.
