    I just posted variant 5 that I picked up last week. New favorite pressing. Holy cow the detail and clarity. Thanks, Ray!

      These Rays cuts are the definitive pressings to own cut from the master tapes. Enjoy

        Spatzo-
        Bought this record 40 years ago. Also saw the concert with 38 special opening. I'm sure it was incredible from what I vaguely . What I do is my poor friend who drove his moms station wagon there. We partied it up big time before the show and the car I'm sure reeked something awful. What we didn't know is that his mom sold the car and it was being picked the next day...oops.
