Grateful Dead: Mars Hotel LP recording


Was listening last night, starting with Graham Nash: Songs for beginners, Judy Collins S/T, and finished with MFSL Mars Hotel.  I have to confess, it was a late one, and I tweaked my VTA at the end of the Nash LP. But to my ears, it was better after the VTA change. The Nash LP was a pleasant surprise, hadn't heard it in years. Great listening session, but Mars Hotel was sonically underwhelming. A bit flat, and diffuse….Such great music, but had nothing going on. I hadn't listened to it in some time, but never remembered it was such a subpar sounding record.  A real shame, because it is a NM LP, the old MFSL too. (-:

I own all of the MoFi issues of Dead LPs and have not been impressed by most of them.  MoFi in general has never blown me away.  Very hit or miss in my experience.
