2nd ever in a triple Dark Star sandwich. Choral singing, not fully developed but part of some of the best damned Dead you'll ever hear. Believe me.

Acoustic version, beautiful and tight. Don't miss the acoustic set in the rush to the late show.

Energetic and tight with great harmonies and strong soloing.

Damned strong version building up nicely to the towering triumph, "you've done better by me than I've done by you". Strong stuff.

Bursting energy ending the 1st set in blazing glory. The shout chorus is outrageously hot. Has to be one of Donna's best nights ever.

By ambivalence I mean Jerry's well known hesitation to bust out and rearrange Stephen again post-Godchauxs. As iconic as it is, Stephen was notable for its absence as much as for its presence in my experience as a head throughout my time on the bus.

One of the beastliest, most rockingest versions from this special transitional era between the psychedelic primal dead INTO the country, before the jamathon Dead we love from 72-74. 70-71 are special times and this doesn't disappoint.

Soldier '15 in full spirit, but not in flesh. Wish I could be there guys, oh how I do. Enjoy it, tape it, share it, love it, live it...

Modern Head, I've been going chronologically through 1970 lately, and discovering some amazing stuff, and also rediscovering the sometimes pleasures of certain AUDs over cleaner SNB. Typically I take one calendar year to listen to in order, while dipping in and out of other shows as the mood strikes, and depending on the credibility of whomever recommends it... O_o indeed. '70 is quite special all told tho. You'll always know where to find me!
