Very surprised this ain't here. Not just because it's THIS night, but the way it thunders out of deep space...The crowd loved it! Deserves to be here!

I Know You Rider
Nov. 10, 1985
Meadowlands Arena

Half-step-Rider!! We were lucky to be there! Crazy ridiculous show!! Was thinking if it as I listened to the Other One-Rider from Dave’s 54 Bonus disc, which I apparently commented on a while ago. 3/31/73 is probably my favorite stand alone Rider, thanks especially to the entire gigantic jam (He’s Gone-Truckin-O1) leading up to it! But this one was lovely! Only time I ever seen it separated from China Cat….
Good Lovin'

Winterland Arena

HOLY SMOKES!! Very different jam From 5/2/70 Harpur (which is one of the most fiery-rip-roaring-GoodLovin-jams ever!!! In the history of the world….) but WOW!! Ranks very close to 5/2/70! Primal Dead in its prime!!!!

The Austin Municipal Auditorium

Yes. This is the Grateful Dead. The second half out of El Paso is absurd, into a mellow rocking Casey and it’s not even the end of a ridiculous First Set. Entire show is why we keep listening and will be forever GRATEFUL. And…..this is a TOP 5 OVERALL DARK STAR.
