Playin' In The Band

McGaw Memorial Hall - Northwestern University

A Dew>Playin'>UJB>Playin' jam of outrageous power, starting one of the great months in the band's history. Pity the show's not complete, though.

Video w/ TC. See it to believe it. And believe me, Carrion Crow, it's an absolute beauty. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVqArOogY-c

The Other One

Auditorium Theatre

Get lined up, put on your helmet, then prepare to be shot out of a cannon for about 30 minutes. This is what early Dead is all about.

This one's a must for fans of this song: I know I'd trade some of my tomorrows for one more yesterday with Bobby & Co. Sweet and meloncholy....

So beautiful I had to stop it mid way through and start it again. Impassioned, clear sounding, great vocals and harmonies. (Phil!) Perfect.

He's Gone
Oct. 15, 1976
Shrine Auditorium

This is one of the best shows of 1976, and every song just jams and jams beautifully (except maybe Bertha, which sounds like an unplanned mess). This He's Gone is one luscious peak after another. So beautiful, so fine.

This scorcher will amaze you. Jerry burns with the force of a thousand suns. Really.

The "It Factor" is dialed way up past 11 here folks. Don't skip this show. Strap on some headphones and cross that Rio-o-o-o Grande. This one is a beaut. I keep using the word "powerful" to describe their playing on this show and I think it's apt. Check out an under-the-radar MHUT and enjoy!

The Devils take this one to the races. The whole set is one colossal jam after another.

The jam out of this is so good. It sounds like half the band is playing Playin' and the other half is playing The Other One. Could some one with better ears than mine tell me if that's right? Are they jamming 6/8 over 10/4 for a patch? Wild.
