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

Madison Square Garden

Yes yes yes, huzzah, a zonked out nyc ramble.

Madison Square Garden

Melty first class steamroller. Mournful and loose, taps into maniacal nerve. Devils interplay with phil and plonky pinks abound. Marathon tiger raging
Feel Like A Stranger
March 9, 1981
Madison Square Garden

excellent mutron moog funk, verges on studio jazz pop or krautrock for cleanness and precision. Another magic night in the heart of the big apple
Black Muddy River
March 24, 1987
Hampton Coliseum

Yeaa, ship of fools slot. hot phil/brent bar band alchemy into this unabashedly sentimental piece a la so many roads, standing. Down on the porch yokey blissful balladry.
