Bursts out with mega mic'd horsepower. Lifts you out of your chair and pins you to the wall. Derserves many fans.

Blasting, enormous, fully psychadelic early Dead show opener complete with cool TC organ, massive gongs and great vocals.

Outrageous 3rd Set madness with the Allman Bros, inside an amazing NFA.

Bird Song

Baltimore Civic Center

Tight is right. This one almost sounds through-composed, but doesn't lose the soaring spontaneity either. Beautiful version.

Boston Music Hall

One of the better ones, this. Seriously underrated. There's good SBD, so avoid the rough AUD.

A long strange trip. This one took the lucky audience far furthur out and back again. Love the description above of this as a "buffet".

Playin' In The Band
Sept. 16, 1972
Boston Music Hall

Delicate and sparkling. Has the melodic theme bubbling up to the surface here and there, which is really different from the other Playin's in Summer/Fall '72. For the AUD-hesitant: The show up to this point is pretty rough, but there's a good SB version on the archive of Playin' through NFA.
