This one is the sound of a band that knows it can do pretty much anything. Smooth and fiery.

Playin' In The Band

Nassau Coliseum

Lively on DP38, Garcia's particular wiry. Then during the build-out, compressed and underwater. And blistering. So ace. Did I mention blistering? Nothing not to like here. Great shit.

A searchlight Slipknot!
The Other One
April 26, 1972
Jahrhunderthalle

Garcia has a bottomless well of ideas and comes out slingin' - never looking back. One of the truly mighty shows.

Orpheum Theatre

As is so often the case in Spring-Summer '76, Garcia's Bean lends class, panache, and silkiness. Some very sweet dynamics in this rendition.

Tower Theater

Am I missing something here? They played this on 6/18 - but not 6/21.
