Best of the Fillmore East run,IMO. Sharp and clean guitar work,purposeful but still relaxed in the best early Deal tradition

Fillmore West

1970, this is new and the boys sound so full of energy and excitement. The whole show has just been reseeded on IA, worth a listen.

Thank you so much for leading me here. What a beautiful performance. I want this played at my funeral.
Doin' That Rag
Feb. 22, 1969
Dream Bowl

A 5star+ show. I think one of the very best of 1969.
Deal
Nov. 16, 1978
Uptown Theater

they kinda get out of step during the first solo, Jerry flubs the lyrics(it's Deal for chrissakes) 22 April 78 or March 1981 streets better for post 76 Deals.
Truckin'
Nov. 5, 1977
Community War Memorial Auditorium

is this the correct date? IA doesn't show Truckin' being played this night.
Bird Song
Aug. 25, 1972
Berkeley Community Theatre

Just a wee note-in light of the solution to the Betty Tapes saga and Dave and the gang now having them in the vaults- I understand that these Berkley shows are among the haul. Maybe a nice box set for next year?
