Greatest Story Ever Told

Winterland Arena

Electrifying and high-power jams, with some of the weirdest sounds Donna ever made. Great fun and a wild ride.

Surf Punk! Never thought I'd hear California surfer thrash so clearly in the Dead, but here it is: Bobby as primordial punk rocker? Why not?

Are you kidding me? This is just blazingly good. Jerry's on fire, vocals and axe. Too good for words.

Solid and sweet, with some beautiful slide solos and nice vocals, Donna included.

A powerful triumph, just exploding with intense jamming and emotion. Real dynamite here.

The pace, throb, and intensity alone puts this in a special category. Add the rocking fills that Jer puts behind the driving (truck in') rhythm, the tires whapping pavement sense, and that killerdiller solo mentioned above and hell yeah, this is world class stuff. Ignore at your own peril.

Hey Okozmic! Welcome to the site, but really? '74? No Help-Slip-Frank? No Estimated Prophet? No Cassidy or The Wheel? I'm as curmudgeonly an old '70s head as they make 'em, but even I've been known to enjoy a Shakedown Street or a - gasp! - Terrapin Station now and again.... Cheers!

Wow. In addition to the subtle and heartfelt interpretation of the lyrics, which I've always felt were some of Dylan's best, Jerry rips a killer solo toward the end (07:54). Great great show.

Garage band extraordinaire. Good old rock and roll.
