Like the best Doc Watson shows, it's part clinic, part musical history lesson of sweeping scope, and pure entertainment delight. This one fits the bill. Some of Doc's stories are priceless. I transferred this a long time ago, but held off on seeding it because the crowd is *very* loud. I took a shot at trying to correct it, but I wasn't happy with the results. Eventually I figured if I didn't just get it out there, it may never happen, and it really deserves to be heard. So if somebody wants to have a crack at correcting the volume issues, be my guest. The guys who recorded this were not serious tapers. It sounds like the deck was sitting on the table top. The music itself sounds not too bad. Most (but not all) of the loud crowd noise is between songs. There's some distracting audience chatter in some parts (some cringe-inducing comments), plus clinking glasses, mic handling noises and the odd cut (there's a fade/tape flip between "Milk Cow Blues" and "A-Rovin' On A Winter's Night" -- there may be others, I don't remember exactly where). Really interesting setlist (Deadheads take note!). Awesome version of "Little Sadie," sweet "I Am A Pilgrim," among many others. Setlist help would be much appreciated (especially for that one instrumental in the late show, which is so familiar). Please check out the samples before downloading. Hope you like it. Corrected the order of sets 1 and 2 as per etree.
