Dave Finney's notes for this compilation:
These are 4 CDs of Seastones shows. 1-3 were originally distributed
by theBay Area Traders Group (BATG) as 11.28.73, but are thought 
by some to actually be 3 different performances. This issue, and 
others, were discussed extensively on Deadlists. The Tarot 
outakes were on side 2 of the second tape. The origin of
the Dominican College, San Rafael show is not known by me.
Some history: I was attracted to this show by the Compendium 
vol 1 review.I went looking for the tape, but was turned down 
by an analog trader whosuggested I seek out a DAT copy. After 
some more searching, a kind DATsterspun a CD copy for me. Upon 
examination, it turned out that the quality of the DAT copy was 
lower than the copy owned by the analog trader. He finally relented 
and loaned me the tapes, but not until after comparing quality 
with the Compendium reviewer's tape. It is probably relevant that 
the DATster got the tape from the DAT branch of the BATG tree. 
The shows are a bit hissy, but are the best quality of 4 copies 
checked.The Compendium reviewer gave his copy an "A", but I'd 
call the selectedrecordings A-/B+. I digitized the tapes 
(Denon, P-200, AWE64, CoolEdit96),set track markers (kindly provided 
by the analog trader), rejoinedoverlapped sections providing coverage 
over tape flips etc andburned to CDR (CDRWin, SAF-RW226, TDK blanks).
This was a very interesting exercise in Grateful Dead tape archaeology.
