Have not yet been able to crack into '90 Dead much, tho I've heard it's different than other latter years, and this helps that case...Grate!

Knowing how epic the following date is, Im surprised I wasn't aware of this...nice long 6' intro and transition into Fire w/o words

Wow. Mind-blowing. Brent seems to take 'Superstition' to a new level and Jerry and Phil are totally flyin' and rippin' and bombin' while the drummers stomp. Hardly noticed Weir but I'm sure he was great. WOW

So this one is pretty great, but I must disagree w/ best-ever...My fave is 7.15.84. Just a personal preference, but compare them and tell me yo disagree

Stunningly gorgeous. A lot of intense effort and focus and pure joy goes into this performance, and seemingly every performance of Europe '72.

Time for self-promotion...Sugar Mag->U.S. Blues->Sunshine Daydream...are you kidding me?!? Does it get any better?
