I got this yesterday and really liking it. I had a DAT taper friend who gave me this show as a Christmas present in 91 but I never listened to it a lot. I think this official release sounds excellent. It brings back memories.
"The eighth installment in the GarciaLive series presents the Jerry Garcia Band's November 23rd, 1991 performance at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, WI. The Fall ’91 tour as a whole is widely regarded as one of Garcia’s finest and this particular Saturday evening serves as a further testament to the legend. Fans in attendance at the Bradley Center braved an intense snowstorm and the audience's palpable energy and enthusiasm was a likely catalyst for this spirited performance. Keyboardist Melvin Seals summarized the group nicely stating "That was the magic band. It’s not that the other scenarios didn’t work out but once we got to that level of the band with (drummer) Dave Kemper, John Kahn, Jerry, myself and the singers, Jackie (LaBranch) and Gloria (Jones) we all knew we had something special. That was the band.”

Agree with Patrick the first
Agree with Patrick the first set is exceptional. I would highly recommend snatching this one up.
I only saw the Worcester and Providence show s,which had an much stronger second set than this release. IMHO. To open the second set with Lay Down Sally was a perfect choice.
Still hoping we get another 90's release with a killer The Maker on it. Best song Jerry was playing by a long shot at the end of his career. The one from Worcester in 1993 ended the show. with it, which may have been the only time this ever occurred.

I got mine too! I saved it
I got mine too! I saved it for the saturday morning coffee and music session. It sounds really balanced. Nice energy. Melvin was right about this band.
I sprung for the poster which is also very nice. Its a landscape oriented poster. shows jerry walking through a snowstorm to the venue w his axe in hand. nice addition to the wall.

It would be better if it didn't have Lay Down Sally and Dixie on it IMO. 2nd disc looks great.
