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

Friend of the Devil
July 4, 1984
Five Seasons Center

review at source provided illustrates a hippie couple fucking for all to see during this slamming brent slow friend. Bracingly intimate but life affirming image, some sort of desperado vagabond thing matches the Dead's outlaw ethos. Also the fireworks fight on lot and RIP rainbow paul. Deep resonant and wacky version.

unique and out of control, very jammed out!!! Cannonball for newer , more heroic horizons. Vibe bullet train. The dead loves the midwest and always drops gems

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sa_CBybgHEI Great pick, clarion... Reminds me of 5/14/78, 6/18/74 and 6/27/84 in terms of energy times scope over an austere plane. Cranial plink and midi horn, arena prog vision over ambient method. wes montgomery mariachi buffet. The result is something at once inwardly hermetic and globetrottingly daring in a kerouac way. https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-g0L2Xxbzwxc/Xg5O9rDu_vI/AAAAAAACZxY/3UFZIyHkdscBJfxk_mWlzf8KALyXfNT2QCLcBGAsYHQ/s640/Rutland_Daily_Herald_Thu__Jul_14__1994_.jpg Jerry gives them what they want.
