A Dew>Playin'>UJB>Playin' jam of outrageous power, starting one of the great months in the band's history. Pity the show's not complete, though.

Video w/ TC. See it to believe it. And believe me, Carrion Crow, it's an absolute beauty. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVqArOogY-c

Get lined up, put on your helmet, then prepare to be shot out of a cannon for about 30 minutes. This is what early Dead is all about.

This one's a must for fans of this song: I know I'd trade some of my tomorrows for one more yesterday with Bobby & Co. Sweet and meloncholy....

So beautiful I had to stop it mid way through and start it again. Impassioned, clear sounding, great vocals and harmonies. (Phil!) Perfect.

Play this for anyone who thinks '76 is 'too slow'. They are way up on top of this on and Billy and Mickey just open it up and own it.

Thanks darkstar67! I'll check that out. I love how the Tapers Section just keeps on keeping on. I dig the Tobin Matrix for this show too :https://archive.org/details/gd1976-06-10.matrix.tobin.84985.sbeok.flac16/gd76-06-10d2t07.flac

This moves through phases along the way but gets there in style! Hits brilliant experimental patches and flirts at weirdness (never really getting there) when all at once-blam-o! It lands you in... BIG RIVER?!? What a mind-fuck that must have been for the Heads in attendance. Gotta love them for such spontaneity.

Sorry about the multiple posts. My rig ain't working.

Don't let a scuffy AUD scare you away from this pristine Cassidy. Bobby and Donna are in sweet harmony, and the band has that 'hot mellow' perfection: Not rushing, but scorching earth. Jerry swoops and soars, riding thermals behind that Cadillac like an eagle chasing prey.
