Fast and fun, the crowd really digging it. Great show in spite of some sound quality issues.

Gets real out fuurther and faster then into a Help-Slip preview in the jam. Great interplay between Phil and Jerry.

Rehearsal, no vocals, brilliant explorations of the song in development. Great insight into the boys' collective mind.

Coliseum Stadium

Just cruising around nicely until about 15:00 and then they hit the warp drive and it just goes everywhere. Great '74 sound. Good, show maybe a bit underated.

Rambler Room

First time played by the Dead, 9 years before it went into regular rotation. Was Jerry already playing this in solo gigs?

Very beautiful ensemble playing.

Stanley Theater

Deeply weird meltdown coming out of a deceptively light and intricate jam. Real bugs under the skin and voices in the head carpet crawling towards the end.

Read about this in a New Yorker article about tapers. "Deadhead" by Nick Paumgarten in the 26.11.2012 edition. Thanks Nick, if you're lurking here, it's a beauty, and you pulled me into the 80s for a nice minute. Had this tape too and always found it... mystical. Great fun.
