Bobby and Keith have a really brilliant exchange in the background here. Great version.

In a show overshadowed by its neighbors, this one stands out for coming together just brilliantly. Show needs more love.

Playin' In The Band

Blisteringly hot group solo from about 4:25 onward, including a Phil episode of pure beautiful berserkness.

Great funk just right in that sweet, rockin' spot. Pig's voice is on, Jerry's on fire, and Keith sounds great.

Felt Forum - Madison Square Garden

Tremendous energy and a beautiful jam with a long China Cat jam in the first bit. What the Dead are all about.

Play this for anyone who thinks '76 is 'too slow'. They are way up on top of this on and Billy and Mickey just open it up and own it.

Thanks darkstar67! I'll check that out. I love how the Tapers Section just keeps on keeping on. I dig the Tobin Matrix for this show too :https://archive.org/details/gd1976-06-10.matrix.tobin.84985.sbeok.flac16/gd76-06-10d2t07.flac

This moves through phases along the way but gets there in style! Hits brilliant experimental patches and flirts at weirdness (never really getting there) when all at once-blam-o! It lands you in... BIG RIVER?!? What a mind-fuck that must have been for the Heads in attendance. Gotta love them for such spontaneity.

Sorry about the multiple posts. My rig ain't working.

Don't let a scuffy AUD scare you away from this pristine Cassidy. Bobby and Donna are in sweet harmony, and the band has that 'hot mellow' perfection: Not rushing, but scorching earth. Jerry swoops and soars, riding thermals behind that Cadillac like an eagle chasing prey.
