Also just about pretty damn perfect too. Follows a super-macho Hard to Handle and the combination shows so much of the emotional breadth of the Dead.

Winterland Arena

A sweet and rare country torch ballad showing off just what they were thinking bringing the Godchaux on board the bus.

Heavy and Heady. Starts with super-charged explosions then melts into ballsy MAMU in under 8 minutes. Love the '71s.

Absolutely smokin' hard rocking swagger. Builds from a cool shuffle to a blisteringly hot rocker setting up Drums/TOO. Great show all around.

The band plays/signs together so well on this sweet one. The whole concert is brilliant.

Has it all. This set is just outrageously perfect.

Never drifts or waddles, just lifts off and flies away on a long and beautiful journey across it all and back again.

LIG on its own is up there with the most interesting and beautiful ones ever.

First one in six years (09/1970). Very pretty and beautifully harmonised. You know, Donna gets so little love here, but listen up here and you'll hear something of what the boys heard in her.
