The Music Never Stopped
April 14, 1978
Cassell Coliseum - Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University

Bob blows some lyrics, but the midsection and outro are fluent and soaring. Lot on the list not as good as this one.

Honorable mention on the old dead clubhouse page, but not on here. There's a youtube video with great sound. See for yourself.

A unique sounding Cassidy. Parts of this almost sound like a studio release of a different band playing like the dead.

Yep, a dead show in the middle of the Susquehanna river. If there's anyone out there from the philly media market, this is a video of a young Nora Muchanic reporting on the '83 show on city island: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rV14pcJK0fU

Most definitely. The second solo break is tremendous and you can hear the crowd realize what they just heard. This is excellent.

I love this one. The spacey section before the outro is tight.
