Grateful Dead, Hilton Hotel, SF, CA March 15, 1969 1 Hard To Handle 2 Good Morning Little Schoolgirl 3 Dark Star > 4 St. Stephen > 5 The Eleven > 6 Turn On Your Lovelight This was liberated from an italian bootleg of undetermined soundboard origin. The levels are a tiny bit high and some minor digi-noise, hiss and other anomalies exist, but this is a nice recording of a decent '69 show. Track 5 actually begins at the cassette flip about two and a half minutes into The Eleven as indicated in the Deadlists source info below. The flip has been edited on this version such that it fades out at the end at the end of track 4 and fades back in on track 5.

DeadBase IX says that Morning Dew; Alligator precedes Hard To Handle, but the talk before Hard To Handle sounds like the beginning of the set and the cut in The Eleven falls at the 45-minute cassette side flip, so DeadBase's information seems dubious. There is a brief cut 2:43 into The Eleven.
