Wharf Rat

Capitol Theater

3rd ever and it's a beauty. Show uneven at first, then comes together with Cryptical>TOO>Wharf for some righteous Dead, looking for their '71 sound.

Cumberland Blues
Aug. 6, 1971
Hollywood Palladium

Along with every other bit of this concert, raging good time energy and virtuouso groupmind, aided of course by one of the most ultimate AUDs ever.

Stop everything you're doing and listen to this now. No really, do it. Now.

Something happens to Playing' in Europe. Check 'em out, one by one and watch it grow. This one is the bomb. Outrageous shredding.

Winterland Arena

Listen to this, then listen again for Jerry's solo: Come back and tell me Big River is a "throw away" song, cause he damn-well tears it up here.

Not the psychedelic exploration of death and dying BP can be, but a smooth low-boil groove with great soul.

"Cumberland Polka". Just simply amazing.

Fragile like a little bird, then soaring. A beautiful jewel.

Typically a FFW moment for me (go tape!) but this one held my attention and gets a star. Bobby's on!
