Bird Song

Giants Stadium

Very inspired playing. Jazzy swing from the rhythm devils, Lesh is barreling down the low end, and Jerry dancing the leads to a powerful conclusion

New Minglewood Blues

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one takes a bit before the boys get their footing, but once they do, LOOK OUT. Choice peak in this throbber

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

SCREAMING start to the show. Boys attack like rabid dogs. Great Brent solo in here. Welcome to Red Rocks!

Red Rocks Amphitheatre

This one opens up nicely, and continually unfolds, into a seamless segue into PITB reprise

Boutwell Auditorium

They are playing in Birmingham, the song mentions Birmingham, mass crowd hysteria ensues. Hot version though, so justifiable

Not Fade Away

Adams Field House, U of Montana

Definitely cranks. Some muddy buttsweat gully funk treats, doled out in abun-dance. Lesh sounds F'n GORGEOUS on the new SBD release
China Doll

Adams Field House, U of Montana

Could turn any steely exterior into an emotive pile of love goo
Black Throated Wind
May 14, 1974
Adams Field House, U of Montana

Nice, mellow version. It doesn't have the explosive Bobby chaw at the end, but it comes together well for a pleasant finish
Loser

Adams Field House, U of Montana

Good call on Keith with the B3 - you can really hear it more clearly on the new SBDs. Definitely gives it an eerie feel
