Me and My Uncle
Nov. 17, 1971
Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Two things: (1) the middle of a searing Other One > MAMU > Other One fest and (2) Garcia loses his mind (or mine) at the end of the solo.

Cryptical Envelopment
Nov. 17, 1971
Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Drop dead gorgeous, lithe, and restaurant quality perfect.

Candyman
May 1, 1980
Greensboro Coliseum

Clear To Hell - Hear how a luscious Candyman absorbs a crowd in NC.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 23, 1971
Capitol Theater

Lately I think of Port Chester. Fab 4 Alignment. Limber. Ambidextrous.

St. Stephen
Dec. 29, 1969
Boston Tea Party

The peak is like a merry-go-round spinning out of and back into control and then, albeit briefly, out and in of control again.

Wharf Rat
May 17, 1977
Memorial Coliseum

Triumphant entrance and the group takes nothing for granted thereafter.
Eyes Of The World
Sept. 23, 1976
Cameron Indoor Stadium, Duke U

The recording is not at all a barrier to grooving on this monster wave. Pacing is perfect - they got progressively faster as time went by and some soul was lost. Garcia never takes the easy way out! That's why I'll follow wherever.
Playin' In The Band
Oct. 3, 1976
Cobo Arena

Tight & detailed. One reason why we celebrate The Lord's Year 1976.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Aug. 23, 1971
Auditorium Theatre

Lesh's bass. Just insane.
The Other One
July 2, 1971
Fillmore West

Yeah - DS67: possibly my favorite year for The Other One. Largely, because of the bass.
