Casey Jones has brief low-level crackle possibly due to a bad microphone;
Wharf Rat has a thirty-second section of analog tape damage leading to a cut
during the song.  No EQ has been performed. You hear what is on the Betty
reels.  This show was from a WBOTB Tree Set list information from the original
tree annoucement:

These tapes are from Betty Cantor's personal stash. For whatever reasons,
she abandoned these tapes (and other property) in a rented storage locker back
in 1986. After giving Betty repeated opportunities to catch up on back rent,
or to remove her property, the owner of the storage facility legally sold the
contents of the locker at an auction. The tapes were sold in batches to
several people. One of these batches (62 shows worth) made its way into the
hands of some deadheads, and was put into general circulation in the taper
community. Bless them again! The first great wave of Betty Boards began hitting
the streets by 1987. They revolutionized tape collecting. I still remember
the joy I felt back in 88 or 89 when another batch of Betty Boards would come
my way. By 1996, however, a lot of the Betty Boards in circulation are
hi-gen and fragmented. Even many of the DAT copies out there are actually
copies of old analog tapes. Given the quality of what was in general circulation,
most folks have never really heard a Betty Board. Until recently, that included
me.  These tapes are great folks. You don't just get to hear the clang and hiss
of a cymbal, but to hear the wood striking the metal disk, the clang and shake
and wobble of the hissing cymbal.  Believe me friends, you ain't never heard
a Betty Board before.  These tapes, although based on two track reels spun
directly from

the soundboard, should not be confused with soundboards that
have been released in recent years. For one thing, many of the soundboards that
the Dead have allowed to sneak out seem to have been slightly salted in one
way or another to degrade the sound quality. These Betty Board tapes are pure
and sweet, with no salting: they are better! For another thing, these Betty
Boards reflect the limitations of working with 7 in. or 10 in. reel to reel
tapes: sometimes a tape breaks off in the middle of a song; sometimes you can
hear the tape spin up to speed at the beginning of a song. There are a few
unpleasant reel flips here and there.  Remember, these tapes were originally
recorded many years ago by hippies on drugs!
