Tight and hot. Something in the vocals at this show went just perfect too, adding to the intensity.

Greatness in this one: Powerful ensemble vocals.

Phil & Ned: By far the most compact and Space-like. Gargantuan Martian landscapes and insect-shaped UFOs. Sounds like Frippertronics. Heavy stuff.

Fully rockin' blowout to close a lovely summertime 1st set: Not my favorite song, but this one really kicks.

Mega-monster just dives into complete madness with a Phil solo for the ages and wild tweaking from all sides. Much fun.

Seems like it covers 25 minutes of jam in about 11 minutes. It's dense, tightly packed, purposeful, and heavy. Get ready to be shot out of the psychedelic cannon with this one.

Almost put this under the IKYR page w/o the CC, even though it would have been historically misleading. Pity about the cut.

Loooooove the deadessays BlogSpot stuff. That's what I was thinking about. There were also great qualitative lists at greatfuldeadprojects.com, (the "top 100 shows off the beaten path" was a killer introduction to any era). It seems to have been taken down. Anyone have info on what happened to it?

Got links? i remember seeing some similar deep analysis (PhD-level musicology or something) about Dark Stars. I love that kind of thing.

Hey Catalonia, what are your metrics? Spreadsheet is a great idea, but what are your y-axis columns? Shreddiness? Steal-your-faceosity? I dig the idea.
