Yup...got mine on tuesday. Truckin' Up To Buffalo is available from the Dead's store at Dead.net. Click here:
http://www.gdstore.com/ It's a Summer '89 outdoor show from upstate NY (Rich Stadium, July 4, 1989). Sound and pic quality are very good, and it was decent show. I've never been a huge Brent Mydland fan, but it's still a good show from a time when Jerry was still recovering from his late '80's diabetic coma debacle.
Of note is the Modulus graphite instruments wielded by Lesh and Weir. Lesh plays a headstockless dark blue 6-str. bass (a la Steinberger) and Weir is playing a Strat-style black modulus 6-str with a MIDI-style digital readout on it (a la that Casio guitar). I wasn't in love with Weir's tone(s), but Lesh's tone was right on and his playing was sublime. Garcia was playing Tiger and playing well and, despite his obvious (relatively) poor physical condition, he was quite animated in his playing (Jerry never moved about much, so I was surprised to see him gyrating). His voice was strained though, but we all know Jerry was never an awesome vocalist. Having said that, his vocal performances were ALLWAYS heartfelt, and he allways found a way to draw you in, despite the clunkers and hoarseness.
I also have the companion CD and tie-dye shirt, LOL!
Highly recommended.
BTW, how's the WOLF doing, Jeffrey?
