Playin' In The Band

McGaw Memorial Hall - Northwestern University

A Dew>Playin'>UJB>Playin' jam of outrageous power, starting one of the great months in the band's history. Pity the show's not complete, though.

Video w/ TC. See it to believe it. And believe me, Carrion Crow, it's an absolute beauty. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVqArOogY-c

Get lined up, put on your helmet, then prepare to be shot out of a cannon for about 30 minutes. This is what early Dead is all about.

This one's a must for fans of this song: I know I'd trade some of my tomorrows for one more yesterday with Bobby & Co. Sweet and meloncholy....

So beautiful I had to stop it mid way through and start it again. Impassioned, clear sounding, great vocals and harmonies. (Phil!) Perfect.

Sweet and delicate with beautiful orchestration towards the climax. Donna and Jerry sound glorious in the outro.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 16, 1978
Huntington Civic Center

They get a slow start and Jerry flubs the lyrics in the Scarlet, but he more than makes up for it by going for the deep dive in the Scarlet jam before transitioning towards the Fire. The Betty Board is sublime, like everyone here sez.
Pretty Peggy O

Not a year that I'm very familiar with. I came to this show for the Dire Wolf, but it was this Peggy-O and that brilliant solo that spun me around. Very nice indeed.

Happy to blow your mind Aush. I dig your avatar.
Samson and Delilah

Tower Theatre

Perfect description. Now I'm a big fan of the one-drummer era, but I'm a deadhead from the Brent years and there are songs that are just gonzo-delicious for Bill and Mickey together. This is definitely a hot version and worth more than the 2 votes it has here.
