Stunningly good. Mysterious. My favourite - for now!

Just a full-on rocking get-up-and-jump version. Keith's blazes here.

Long fast and beautiful China jam to open 2nd set. Forgotten show? Check it out, heads, you won't regret it.

Crowd pumped up for this 1st set opener. Juiced and tight. Starts one hell of show.

Stealth Show. Blazing Playin' - hot and fast, no summertime mellow here folks. Under the radar massive Dead.

The Eleven

Fillmore West

Sorry - didn't hear the correct version. The Eleven doesn't come out of Mason's. My bad.
St. Stephen

Fox Theatre

One-of-a-kind transition into Mason's. Historic, if only because this was the first DS>SS after Tom C. left the band (unless they played another one in Hawaii after January 23 that didn't make it onto the Archive...).
Dark Star

Fox Theatre

Everything you could want in a 1970 Star: Tight when it needs to be, then loose when it should be, eclectic, melodic, soaring, deep, complicated... Twists its themes around themselves like a moebius strip.
The Other One
Feb. 1, 1970
The Warehouse

Re-entry comes in with supernova force and one of those throat-drying "I hope I can handle this" moments. Some folks are probably still seeing tracers from it. Though it does have a patch missing, it's still hella worth the ride.

Deep, subtle, beautiful acoustic version. So intimate, it sounds like they're just singing around a campfire.
