Received from torrent
Lineage: "Dick's version" Master (reel) - DAT - DAT (clone) - CDR - Flac - world

notes from other torrent:
Soundboard recording, a bit faint in spots, and a few cuts and mic drops here and there. Some of the instruments are faint, like the fiddle in "Orange Blossom Special", and the vocals are loud and raw. You may also see this as a Grateful Dead show or as "Jerry Garcia & Friends", depending on who the listener favors. Doug's out front singing and Jerry plays pedal steel for a good part of the night (see included photo). It does sound very Dead-like sometimes though, as you would imagine.

amended note for this torrent:
There seem to be two versions of this around (at least), with a few different tracks and the discs broken out differently. This copy was recieved as part of a large batch of Dead Dats that were supposedly from Dick Latvala's archive of shows that were NOT under consideration for the Dick's Picks series. Given out to close associates before his passing.

This version includes "Mr. Tambourine Man" as well as "Kentucky Waltz" and "Big Boss Man", so i believe its the MOST complete version in circulation. tracking is left as was recieved ("roll over beethoven" etc. is actually a medley, as is the case with "shake a hand" which Doug just throws in a few lines from) This version also seems clearer, less muffled (IMHO)...maybe there was a cass. gen. in the other lineage...I know at least 2 Deadhaeds that got this on Cass. shortly after i recieved my DAT and offered me a dub to CDR...
 

For that Thanksgiving recording, I know the drummer being Kreutzmann is dubious but I also read that the fiddle player for that was a dude from some band called Shiva's Headress, although Doug Sahm was apparently quite a capable fiddle player, in addition to being good at just about everything else.

?

The fiddle player is Mary Egan from the Greezy Wheel out of Austin. She has a few different stage names, but folks out of Austin know her as "Sweet Mary".

Greezy Wheels were the house band at the Armadillo Club from 1972-1975. She has spoken about playing at that gig with Jerry Garcia. It's legendary show down in Austin.

Last I read is that Sweet Marry is fighting cancer.

Greezy Wheels live at the Armadillo (1975)
