One of the lasts, and they're undoubtedly still jamming the shit out of it. Listen to them come out of drums and the head sez "pray it's not NFA" !!!

Pressure cooker here, just bursting with energy. Pig sounds great, Jerry goes full throttle. AUD quality B only, but worth every second.

Souped up high voltage versions here. The CC has that rippin' '69 energy and the vocals throughout nail it.

The Main Ten. Primordial Playin' groove. This is the deep Dead here. Powerful.

Continuing on 48 minutes of the immortal "kitchen sink" jam, this one holds its own to any other of the era.

Industrial cruncher. Bobby's brilliant here.

Hey deadheadben, are you doing a chronological thing through 1970? I'm just about finished (up to 26 December now) and have loved it. There's so much variety and change, buried treasures in murky AUDs and of course the great acoustic stuff. I took my time and spiced it up whenever I wanted to hear something else, but kept at it. I've done the same with '73, '74, '75 (easy), and '71, so next is either '76 or '72.... Enjoy it man... I sure have. Peace.

Some tape speed problems, though definitely smokin'.

The antidote to anyone who things that all of '76 crawls along at a soporific pace: this one cooks!

Cool black and white video of the whole concert on at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmr3o0_92f0 The band is so tight and the fun is in the air. Very nice transition into Sup.
