Notes

deadsources: May 1972: Paris "The second night at the Olympia was better than the first. There were only 30 or so cops on band - down from 180 the night before - a unique sort of .. review" of the Dead's music and audience when you think about it. Again all 2200 seats were filled. Again the audience crawled forward in a friendly inquisitive Gallic swell, applauding, cheering and chanting .. one more one more one more" at the end of another fourhour- long set. And this time, Jerry Garcia admitted afterward, .. We played peachy."

5/3 and 5/4/72 were among the "Honeymoon" tapes that were taken from David Gans' house while he was away on his honeymoon.
