Awesome near 7 minute Playin that starts to go out there as it would much more in a few months. Really interesting period for the band imo

Dark Star
Sept. 2, 1968
Betty Nelson's Organic Raspberry Farm

Too dang short. This one is nearly entirely the Dark Star theme and is played so fast and fluidly, absolutely rocks on this Charlie Miller tape
Morning Dew

Strand Lyceum

Triumphant ending. The way Dews are meant to be played...
Dark Star

Strand Lyceum

Fantastic E72 version with a sublime transition into Dew. The DS theme in this one is strong and beautiful, chaotic and powerful towards the end
The Music Never Stopped
Aug. 13, 1975
Great American Music Hall

Just here to say this show is as smooth as the Dead ever sounded, and Donna is amazing on this tune!!!
It's All Over Now Baby Blue

Love this one, just very salty it wasn't included with the filler songs from this show on the new Dave's Picks.
