Great forward, driving pulse to this one. Sounds like the had a blast playing it.

Kind a chaotic mess, but with a shredding outro which extends the jam for 8 minutes. A strange, cool interpretation for SS fans like me.

Jerry at his most angelic, comes after Bobby at his most satanic. Beautiful stuff.

The jam kickstarts the band around minute 3, and they go from sleepyish to electric haywire.

McDonough Arena - Georgetown University

Very hot transition from Truckin'. Short but powerfull, a fully-charged space cannon.

Uncle John's Band
Aug. 24, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

The energy and drive on this is unparalleled. The outro(s) are just phenomenal, and all after hours of high-velocity, outer-spheres-crazy creative jamming: The finest band in the land indeed.
Ramble On Rose
Aug. 24, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

Convincing, up-tempo pulse to it. Never lags, as some RoRs do.

Has the rhythm and thrust of an 18-wheeler cruising 85 m.p.h. If this doesn't get you out of your chair to dance, then nothing will.
Morning Dew

Berkeley Community Theatre

This DS>Dew is as sublime an arc as I know in the whole oeuvre. The whole range of whisper to cataclysm is on display. Jerry's voice is also in great shape, and the whole thing seems unworldly.

You got that right, Glyn. This whole show could have gone straight to vinyl. The highlights from this Berkeley run are top '72 (says a hell of a lot), and just Peak Dead all around.
