The first and inarguably one of the best JGB official live releases. I bought this for my twin brother for Christmas in 1990 or 91 on CD — ostensibly a gift to myself. I’ve owned various cd and digital copies over the years, but this vinyl LP sounds the best. Beautifully packaged with liner notes and art, and overall just a treat to have this to inaugurate my new turntable. Now, if only we could get Pure Jerry Keystone Berkley 9/1/74 on record! Thanks for the music!

So happy to have this set to enjoy. The playing is supple and light and joyful, arguably the best JGB I've heard. And this is beautifully recorded and very well mastered and press--sound quality is a delight. Thank you for this, Garcia Family Provisions! :)

I received the box set and have been eyeing it like a present. I'm waiting for a perfect moment to crack it open.. I've heard this set before and it's stellar. I can't wait to hear it on a lossless format!

I don't think there's any way I could be happier with this! Sounds fantastic. What I really like is the superb sound quality of this original release, and would love to have more of this quality available on vinyl.

Fabulous album, just as I remember from my cassette years ago. The vinyl pressing is top notch and the liner notes are great, especially Bill Walton’s.

Realistically, im just glad this was even pressed. At 5 discs and in a nice, sturdy box set, the price point is great. Music sounds great and the records play super quiet. Love the mix and im very happy with it
