Sweet fun in a gorgeous acoustic set. Clapalong crowd adds to the joy.

Slow waltz tempo. Bobby's voice gorgeous, Jerry's cantina filigree perfect. A perfect gem. AUD quality B-.

Pigpen gets a woman pregnant on stage. Rough AUD but utterly worth it. The jam starting around 16:00 is very hot.

School Gymnasium, S.U.N.Y.

A barnburner that suffers a bit from compressed sound quality (and a mic. problem), but still hot & worth a spin. Cryptical outro gets going nicely.

Industrial cruncher. Bobby's brilliant here.

Hey deadheadben, are you doing a chronological thing through 1970? I'm just about finished (up to 26 December now) and have loved it. There's so much variety and change, buried treasures in murky AUDs and of course the great acoustic stuff. I took my time and spiced it up whenever I wanted to hear something else, but kept at it. I've done the same with '73, '74, '75 (easy), and '71, so next is either '76 or '72.... Enjoy it man... I sure have. Peace.

Some tape speed problems, though definitely smokin'.

The antidote to anyone who things that all of '76 crawls along at a soporific pace: this one cooks!

Cool black and white video of the whole concert on at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmr3o0_92f0 The band is so tight and the fun is in the air. Very nice transition into Sup.
