Kings Beach Bowl

Rips as hard and heavy as any I've heard! Unfortunately the climax is a bringdown b/c of the power cutting out, but Jerry comes back with a vengence!

Wonderful, what a soaring and uplifting version! Also possibly the *first* since we know 5/5/67 is probabaly a misdate...

Playin' In The Band
May 21, 1974
Edmundson Pavilion

I dig this one a lot. I don't think it's the best Playin' despite its length, but there are some awesome segments that will definitely keep me coming back. The jamming right around the 30 min. mark, for example, is especially wicked!

Jerry's tone is very crunchy and distorted at times...he repeats a wild Main Ten-like figure during the jam that gets really intense. Love it!
