Nassau Coliseum

Long and adventurous and moody (24+ min). First concert after Pig died. You can hear their sadness in places.

Salt Palace

Soaring and majestic. Melodic soloing and tight group work. Unfortunately incomplete on the archive. Where is the rest?

The band is playing all over this version. Great collective jam, Jerry and Keith sound great despite sound quality problems.

High energy, tight and exuberent show opener on this epic (DP28) last night in one of the great months in Dead history.

A fun rare bit of Chuck Berry's often-overlooked influence on the Dead (and all of Rock and Roll, for that matter).

Proof that Pig and Keith went together like potatos and gravy. Pig's voice harp solo are just tops.

Like much of '73 this is what I call "hot mellow". Energetic but nicely spacey. Cool version.

Oh man, now that's a great Dark Star. Love when Phil just phases in around 12:00 (and again at 19:00) like you're abandoning gravity. That this kind of music was performed live is just too fucking cool for words, but hey, I like Seastones, too.

Any advice on versions without that glaring AUD patch at the end?
