Adams Field House, U of Montana

Slower, moody and thoughtful with Phil and Jerry-driven explorations. Brief Slipknot tease at 8:20 and 13:50 and a cool Supplication tease at 9:30.

University of Nevada

Inventive and crystal clear jam, leading into a 'nobody's fault' jam and a killer TOO>MLB where the '74 sound is just taking shape. Underappreciated.

Brilliant, cracklin' good, fast, tight and fun.

Chinatown Shuffle

Winterland Arena

Crackles with up-and-jumping energy. Great show all around showing off the best of the era with Pig and Keith.

Some funky bass be-bop and beautiful chaos in order in chaos in the outro jams. Just exactly perfect.

Beautiful harmonies. Some of the New Riders were there for it.

Good call: I'm much more of a '60s and '70s Head, but this show just bursts out. I always loved this song when I got to hear it in concert, so I'm happy to see it up here - on the same day that I'm listening to this concert for the first time in years. Reminds me why I loved the Dead during Brent's time, too.

Top choice grade A. Tight and right. I keep coming back when I need my '77 fix. May also be the single most insane show opener ever.

Help us C. Miller! This show deserves a cleanup! Oops (later the same day), I mean THANK YOU, Charlie Miller. Your cleanup is much appreciated. Skip the other version heads.
