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...."

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

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.

Jerry's precision fretwork all over around under and through Bobby's vocal sections make this one a favorite for me. Perfect guitar fillagree.

Wow. No like, "WOW", oh man. Mind blown, totally wow, man. Just wow.

Deeply inventive. The influence of Miles is there, along with a other "fusion" music of the time. So many places in this one, the Scarlet is just glorious in between. And yes, the outro is jump out of your chair hand-clappingly good.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Transition has some beautifully inventive rhythmic interplay between Jerry and Phil bridging the two songs nicely.

Hollywood Bowl

Kicks hard and doesn't disappoint. High energy at the top of a mind-melting 2nd set jam-a-thon.
