Wild and reckless - a supernova.

Carousel Ballroom

It rocks. A tight first Born Cross Eyed after a pretty rough New Potato Caboose. Love the '68 sound.

First version, out of the first China Cat ever. Epic show. Pigpen is on fire the whole night.

Turn On Your Love Light

Carousel Ballroom

Blazing start to an awe inspiring, historically massive show. It's pure. Pig and Bobby are especially fun during the hocket (vocal back and forth).

Eureka Municipal Auditorium

Massive, sprawling, acid rock bursting at its seams. "Primal Dead" bending space-time.

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!
