Hard to Handle

49th Street Rock Palace

Hot soloing and '71 levels of intensity. Listenable in spite of some tape wobble and distortion. Fun to watch H2H expanding during this era.

Action House

Headphones only very rough AUD, but one of the rare electric funky Deep Elems. Historical rarity.

Pity about the C- sound quality, because a new tape of this would show us a real corker.

Final jam in an enormous show. Just killer. Follows the one NRPS set you need to hear. Whatta world.

Through the AUD fuzz and chatter comes a beautifully rendered vocal performance. Enjoy this hidden treasure.

Peak Dead all week long, but this show (and the incomplete 25th) are just note for note perfect all round. This one is a stunner.

Not really a complete song, more like a short jam section of the NFA>GDTRFB>NFA, (same chords, same hambone, same clavé....) but very cool all the same. Very cool indeed.

Lusk Field House - State University Of New York

Some wobbly vocals, which may be a tape speed problem (?), but a crunching, blistering solo from Jerry and a "fun-was-had-by-all" feelgood party feeling to it, warts and all.

Cucamonga's right. This is special. The whole set is one continuous jam, which after a pretty spaced-out Playin' and a looooooooooong d/s leads into this fun run through a different approach to Truckin'.

Constantly inventive, at times chaotic, at other times spontaneously melodic: a beautiful long ride with many twists and turns. Beautiful one-of-a-kind (correct me if I'm wrong guys and gals!) jam starts in around 11:20, and another one at 25:20. What a show!
