Also just about pretty damn perfect too. Follows a super-macho Hard to Handle and the combination shows so much of the emotional breadth of the Dead.

Winterland Arena

A sweet and rare country torch ballad showing off just what they were thinking bringing the Godchaux on board the bus.

Heavy and Heady. Starts with super-charged explosions then melts into ballsy MAMU in under 8 minutes. Love the '71s.

Absolutely smokin' hard rocking swagger. Builds from a cool shuffle to a blisteringly hot rocker setting up Drums/TOO. Great show all around.

The band plays/signs together so well on this sweet one. The whole concert is brilliant.

Beautiful and unforgetable Jerry solo jam transition into a killer Wharf Rat sandwich.

Winterland Arena

Deep and dark Blues roots Dead with a tight and hot jam. All the reasons to listen to '67 are right here.

You can get genuinely lost in this jam. Seems infinite while you're in it. As Proud Walker Justin put it, a fine bit of acid rock, indeed.

Opens up in whole new directions suggesting what might have been had Pigpen stayed with us into the next era. A real gem.
