The Traffic tape in question was recorded by the same crew, and in the same manner, as
the now correctly identified 11/16/70 Dead Fillmore East show. It was the next taped
show at F.E. and this is why the early reel copies of 11/16/70 that circulated back in
the 1970's had the Bill Graham Traff
The information currently contained in Deadlists for these two dates is correct.
Correction to my previous post: The Mama Tried, Truckin -> The Other One sequence follows Not Fade Away -> Goin Down the Road -> Not Fade Away, and before Uncle John's Band. I mispoke by saying it followed Big Railroad.
The newly circulating copy of this show contains: 1) Me and My Uncle between Casey Jones and Friend of the Devil, 2) The complete Chinacat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider, 3) The complete Hard to Handle, with the Traffic members coming on stage to three separate cheers from the audience beforehand.
What we know with near certainty is the following: 1) A Hell's Angels benefit with the Dead was held at the Anderson Theater on 11/23/70 (newspaper advertisments, Crossland's review in the East Village Other) 2) The Dead, Hot Tuna, and members of Traffic played at the Fillmore East on 11/16/70 (Ni
The Chip Crossman review of the 11/23/70 show in the East Village Other has been
cited to support the date and venue of the recording that has circulated for years as
being at the Anderson Theater on 11/23/70. A careful reading of the review would seem

I've recently discovered that the reason the vocals are so low in the mix for the electric set is that the channels were recorded out of phase on the master. The 'out of phase' condition replicates itself with each copy and can apparently be corrected down the line. I've been told this is not a di
David Litfin's recent post on this show looks right. My reel copy of Peter Abram's
that I made in 1974 is missing in action, but I do remember it being considerably
longer than the 31 minutes listed here at Deadlists. I never transferred this show to
CD, because it is missing. Therefore, what
I've had a reel copy of the 2nd set since early 1980 and here's what I was told back
then by a friend of mine who was there with Andre (?) but wishes to remain anonymous.
This was essentially an experiment to see just how good an audience recording could be
made. The deck was a Technics 1506 re
What John has described as scans of the front and back of the handbill from
the 4/71 Dead shows are actually the front cover and an inside page from the
program, not a handbill. The circular pages with the song listings are
inserts that sit on top of the reels, which then sit in thin plastic ho
