I used to hate the sterile sound of the Dicks Picks from 5/6/81, and blew it off until I heard a lively Barry Glassberg (if I remember correctly) recording, and I finally understood the fuss about the Nassau show. My favorite taper is Jim Wise. I'm not saying he was the best, but I enjoy his recordings from the early 80's.
