Great harp work from Pigpen, who's voice was still strong and full of blues: Great crunchy jamming from the band.

With the power to blast you out of your chair. Watch your dose, it's that strong.

Any question's about primal Dead? Answer's right here in the outro of this psychedelic monster. A really hard core brainmelter, this.

Has it all. Builds and builds up to a great peak with Jer and Keith playing all out behind a great Bobby performance.

Maybe I'm the only Head out there who digs this song, but damn if this isn't a beauty. Tight harmonies and a good-times feeling.

I've voted and commented already, but want to shout out a special for the Slipknot on its own; not only because Jerry's tone as he rips into it is like a spacetime buzz saw with the bomber force of a blazing star destroyer - that's some cool shit right there - but also because you can smell the hungry desire of the band to play this amazing composition live. Those who find this show "too short" miss the point. This was one of four show this year. I can't imagine what it felt to burn out enough after '74 to stop playing together live. This song and show shows the love, the magic, and the burning passion of a Dead Show, and the wild passionate group mind at its most musical. Any player out there can tell you: Slipknot is a hard mother fucker to play, harder to play well, harder still to play together, even harder to nail live, and just catastrophically difficult to jam out like this without sounding like a soulless chops wizard. Do they do it? Of course they do, and with a smile that makes it sound easy. Damn, it's good.

Quintuple-decker sammy here. The "uncle john's band jam" in 7/4 time may one of the coolest things I've ever heard. Hard to even imagine UJB as a primordial idea, let alone an unfinished song, but it here it is in an incomplete, elemental form. Damned good find in a fantastic DS from '69.

Burner, for certain. Hard to believe that's the same man singing and playing at the same time. Thanks archive!

Perfect execution across this opener duo Bertha>Good Lovin'. You just know the lucky fans thought, "oh, my, they're on, we're in for a good one...".

MORE COWBELL!!! Seriously top shelf Dancin'. When this gets moving you can hear just how much fun they were having. Jerry/Phil are in a pure symbiosis and they go into a unique jam for a bit around minute 9:00.
