The master recording of the November 8, 1976 concert was recovered by Donna Jean Godchaux. While moving in 2015, she found the reel-to-reel tapes in a box in her possession.

In a 2016 interview, Donna Jean talked about being in the Jerry Garcia Band. "It was very different from the Grateful Dead in that everything was so scaled back to where we could play theaters instead of hockey rinks. It was very enjoyable on that level because these places were built for music to be played in. It was just a really unique situation to be as popular as Jerry Garcia was and still be able to be in a band that could do what we did in a smaller setting than the Grateful Dead. It was kind of like a home away from home for Jerry, in that he got this different expression of what he was feeling musically than the Grateful Dead."
