Notes:
The SBD source generally ran around 0.95% slow in set 1 and was pitch corrected. It ran from 1.1% to 1.3% slow in set 2 and was pitch corrected as needed.
The older "Paul Scotton and Joani Walker" SBD source (2006) was preferred over the newer "Don Pearson" source (2020). In this case, the Pearson source had more high end than preferred for this matrix project.
The 2018 transfer of Ted's audience tape was preferred over the 2021 remaster for this matrix project, although we did use No. 156417 with EQ to patch the missing Scarlet ＞ Fire.
No additional EQ needed.
A brief dropout in the right channel of the SBD during Hell In A Bucket was compensated for by increasing the right channel of the AUD a little bit. It sounded smoother after doing this.
The very beginnings of Little Red Rooster and Bird Song, plus a 20-second cut during Space, are now patched in the SBD source (with AUD).
Two clicks removed or reduced, one in Stagger Lee and one in Bird Song.
Crowd goes WILD after Truckin's "What a long strange trip it's been!"

The only thing better than 89 was Brent 90. They just kept getting better until 7/23/90. Everything after that was just 🙄.

[@MrCecilnoise]

@@staggerlee4979 yeah I’d definitely agree with that, was 2nd row between jerry & Bobby at that last Brent show, he seemed possessed during good time blues (never trust a woman)
