Delicate an gentle - coming after a twisting rocketship of an Eyes, saying, "everything will be okay folks if we can just all come down together...."

Boston Garden

Out of a 20 min mindbent HCS this is a sweet, heartfelt chillout. Great '73 sound.

Playin' In The Band

Boston Garden

An extensive, long strange trip. Hot in places, then trippy and spaced out. Fast. Phil and Jerry in total unity.

Passionate and heartfelt with beautiful ensemble vocals. Bobby's spider rap follows.

An immense, killer set closer. This show shows all the different faces of the Dead and this Playin should have many many fans.

Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication

Field House - Seneca College

May just be the best ever.

Oh yeah, this one sizzles. The Lightning portion is a bit short, but the great tightness and exhuberence to the Supplication makes up for it.
Brokedown Palace

Hill Auditorium

December '71 is one of the most consistently perfect months in Dead history. This tour has so many highlights its an embarrassment of riches, and has some of the best vocals ever.
Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Fox Theatre

Shows the genius of the group. The segue follows several other examples of surprising song melding throughout the second set. What fun. Check out the TOO>MAMUJam>TOO>Sittin' On Top Of The World>TOO a few minutes prior. Makes me think they were putting Keith to the test, saying 'alright freshman, how about we play every single thing we know all at once and make it sound amazing'...!

Freshness and power to the early versions. Jer's voice is strong and this one's a beaut.
