Sourced from the original soundboard recordings by Betty Cantor-Jackson, the sound is colorful and vivid, an excellent complement to a prime Dead performance. Rhino/Grateful Dead Records' official release followed in May 2017 - just in time for the concert's 40th anniversary it was also bundled as part of a big box called Get Shown the Light, which contains all the shows the Dead did in May 1977 - and it's worth the wait. It, like so many Dead shows, first gained its reputation through tape trading, but its legend soon eclipsed Deadhead circles, culminating in its induction into the Library of Congress's National Recording Registry in 2012. Disagreements and debates are common among Grateful Dead fans but there is a surprising consensus that the show the group gave at Barton Hall at Cornell University on is one of the band's greatest.
