Rip roaring out of Uncle John's Band and after a high octane 2nd set, how else to finish?

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.

Donna and Bobby's singing was at it's best in 1976. Finally, they both stopped(most of the time) screeching and sang within their range and volume and the band sounds so much better for it. If only they had stuck with this instead of resorting to type. Ah well.....

What's NOT good in this show? From a stellar year where hardly any show is a bust or drags, this is a top 5 show. Well worth taking some time out from your busy lives and listening to the whole show. Can't think of too many better ways to spend 3 hours and also raise your well being for much longer. P.s I love DEAL

Superb,really high energy,mad ending. Yeah "we quit" from Bobby is just about right. Give it a whirl with your girl!

Folsom Field, University of Colorado

Very good indeed. But September 72 "He's Gone" are so many and wonderous- see 9/21 &9/28 especially. Indeed IMO the Spectrum show and the 3 nights at the Stanley Theatre are every bit as good as Venata.

One of the best-so well played and sung, all just exactly purrfect. Pure Sunshine Daydream
