Brian, I'm continuing to work through my collection and get them all play-graded and in Discogs.  What a long strange trip it's been!  And still a ways to go... the Dead occupy a lot of space in my collection.

Ahhhh…..yep, been there, done that. Good for you on all counts. 👍🏼

@vair68robert Yep, it’s a good one, and actually pretty good SQ for a very small label. I picked it up in the early/mid-70’s for probably a dollar or so used. Now, rare and a bit pricey. Lucky to have it. I think it’s better than Circle Round The Sun, which was basically the same LP redone in a ‘pro’ studio a year later.

I have all Leo’s stuff through the 70’s on vinyl, a couple newer on CD, but did pick up his newest on vinyl, Noon with Mike Gordon.

A huge Leo fan.

I saw him in the mid-70’s at a small club. Incredible. You swear there had to be 3-4 guitars playing. Amazing.
