The Other One
Oct. 29, 1973
Kiel Auditorium

A massive, heavy, rocketship of a performance: Explosive liftoff, mining expedition to deep space, smoking craters, then a long sweet fast ride home.

A beautifully rendered rare treat with a nice emotional arc and sweet harmonies.

Hot building and building jam. One of those shows where just every song rocks. Nothing wrong here...

Great solos, tight ensemble playing kicking of the 2nd set from a great show. Energetic and blazing.

Dark Star
Aug. 24, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

August '72 is bursting with enormous Dark Stars, but I think this one does it for me. Its arc, its explosiveness and deep explorations all seem well balanced between chaos and order, darkness and light, reflections and the formlessness of matter....

Still streamable (and worth every second) from the good folks at the Clubhouse Projects: http://www.gratefuldeadprojects.com/Dark_Star.html Enjoy, it's a beauty.
Attics of My Life
June 24, 1970
Capitol Theatre

Two 'Attics' from this date. Show starts with an acoustic set and a lovely version. Then this one comes within a great Dark Star.
Dark Star

Tivolis Koncertsal

Something in the water there in Copenhagen, but the Dead must have loved it, 'cause the whole show rocks. They go all out here and the result is one of the most beautiful Dark Stars ever.
Here Comes Sunshine

Winterland Arena

The Apotheosis. They perfected it, so why go any higher? Always wondered why HCS got pulled after it became such an enormous vehicle, maybe it just couldn't get better and they stopped on the high note rather than let it get stale? Thankfully we've got the Archive so we can share the love all these years later.
