Great harp work from Pigpen, who's voice was still strong and full of blues: Great crunchy jamming from the band.

With the power to blast you out of your chair. Watch your dose, it's that strong.

Any question's about primal Dead? Answer's right here in the outro of this psychedelic monster. A really hard core brainmelter, this.

Has it all. Builds and builds up to a great peak with Jer and Keith playing all out behind a great Bobby performance.

Maybe I'm the only Head out there who digs this song, but damn if this isn't a beauty. Tight harmonies and a good-times feeling.

Sounds like Tom C. on a steam calliope. Any historians out there know what rig he was on here? Cool, pure 1970 sound here just giving birth to itself out of the crash landing of the sixties....

Jerry's vocal performance is clear and beautiful. Sweet, pure version.

Funny you'd say that hvd, I just made a similar comment about 10 June 1973: Opening with the Dew always means going in big.

Any show that OPENS with Morning Dew is going to be spectacular. Maybe that's too obvious to say, but damn they mean bizznezz from the start. A ripsnorting version from all sides.
