St. Paul Auditorium

Mindblowing jams reminiscent of the massive '72s. Check out Jer and Phil interplay around 10:00.

Third time performed and still a bit loose in the joints, but tighter and funkier than Dane County 2 days earlier.

Dane County Coliseum

Mellow in places, shredding in others, goes in and out of off-the-rails trippyness but doesn't meltdown. Why isn't this one already here?

Brilliant, lightning-speed Jerry soloing behind Bobby. Worth many a listen in a great great show.

Fun and enthusiastic, if not just a little loose in the joints. Good energy and a great show all around.

Immense Depth. We all know/love china>rider, yes me too. But listen to this Rider on its own and therein find a key to the immense depth to this band we love called the Grateful Dead.

Show doesn't get much love, but this Playin' has everything in it except a complete meltdown. Good solid groove throughout with many stages, just as coralsandbelow put it.

Symphonic arcs in this stellar example of why '72 Stars are so well loved. Rises, falls, rises again: melodic strands sneak into the melty bits, and all along they all just seem perfectly in sync. Needs several listens to appreciate just how truly epic (a word I don't use lightly) this one really is.

I can't stop listening to this. Really, it's been like four days straight and it just blows me away each time.

Friends don't think the Dead rock hard? Or that they're just 'a bunch of hippies'? Want to convince a metalhead that the Dead had been there and done all that over 40 years ago? Want to blow your freakin' mind? Here's your boy right here.
