St. Paul Auditorium

Mindblowing jams reminiscent of the massive '72s. Check out Jer and Phil interplay around 10:00.

St. Paul Auditorium

Third time performed and still a bit loose in the joints, but tighter and funkier than Dane County 2 days earlier.

Dane County Coliseum

Mellow in places, shredding in others, goes in and out of off-the-rails trippyness but doesn't meltdown. Why isn't this one already here?

Brilliant, lightning-speed Jerry soloing behind Bobby. Worth many a listen in a great great show.

Fun and enthusiastic, if not just a little loose in the joints. Good energy and a great show all around.

Kresge Plaza - MIT

Brilliant long jam. Very creative and deep in places. Doesn't go into space, but stays right in the pocket.

Duh. Ha! I love that this is here, I love you guys, and I love the Grateful Dead.

You're welcome GlynP. Check out the little essay at the link I cited above. Good website that one. Peace!

Hey Glynparson! If you dig Sept. and Oct. '76 Dancin's (and I know you do) check out October 3rd. That's my current favorite from this sweet spot in the song's history. Enjoy!

I've said in reference to the suite, I think there are several TOOs that stand up to the well-know May 2. But that isn't to say this isn't an outrageous mother of a beast. This outro just slices through you with such precision. Whatta slaughter!
