Whopping late '77 version of this, the Dead intuitively coasting the waves of the atmosphere's collective imagination.

Victim Or The Crime

Nassau Coliseum

Exemplary haunted house rager with deathly walls of plink, watch the heads in the front rows shuddering still with awkward fright at this twilight banger. desolation row teleprompter levels of lyrical density though they're really not very good, compare it to black throated wind or sailor saint and see. Stargazing avant screaming jams on this no prisoners 94 set, garcia lets flow euphorically tortured spirals of texture, Lesh's notes are pitch perfect and devils brew is fascinating. Altogether this one packs a punch.
