Dark Star
July 18, 1972
Rossevelt Stadium
Sixteen minutes of musical bliss kicks off this glorious trek in and out and around inter and inner-stellar space. It's creative and coherent, and exactly what you might need if your looking for a mellow Star. But you'd be wrong, as after the first verse it gets good and weird. Like fifteen thousand squirming lizard-rats shrieking you out of existence without warning-weird. Good old Grateful Dead, they don't leave you there, but instead pull all of your disassociated molecules out of the aether and reconstitute you back on earth with a lovely, loving Comes a Time.... How do they do it? Who knows, but they do, and it works this time.
