Archive copy sounds like its recorded through a tin can, but excellent groove, jam. For headphones only.

Massive and powerful. Jerry and Keith are just brilliant. OK, that all from me on this great show.

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.

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

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.

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.
