Comments:
First known Grateful Dead version of "Willie & The Hand Jive"
There is a grinding sound from the PA, thought to be Weir's rig distorting, throughout this entire spring tour.
It is present only when they are playing, not during breaks.
I listened to several FOB audience sources from this tour and they all have this "noise".
