I have to say that I am unimpressed with the sound quality of the Pure Jerry release of the 10/31/87 show as well as the compilation "Best Of The Rest". It sounds like an audience recording, and I have heard better audies. It's a pity because these were some of the best played Jerry shows ever. I had the pleasure of going to several of them including the Halloween show. Bill Graham was standing out front greeting the fans dressed as a Zombie.

Based on the stream (a very unreliable source for sound quality), my guess it's a sound board with a TON of ambiance microphone mixed in. I.E. dreadful mix. It's possible it's an audie, but I don't think so.
Anyone have a list of band members?

As much as I am a near completeist of all dead and jerry (I think infrared rose and the first 90s box set and one of the pure jerry are the only gaps) I have felt the jerry vault release series of late to be missed opportunities. I love the almost acoustic band...but I am not biting. I feel the band has been represented well enough...and with the sound issues...just does not excite me at all. My big fear is when I see vol 1 in title. Please don't make this the next half assed series. But there is hope for me on that front...the existing side trips series had stopped after volume 1. That I would like to see come back. Forgive me Jerry...but I will be dancing to your spirit in Chicago over the fourth.
