I Need A Miracle
July 20, 1994
Deer Creek Music Center

6 tracks pre-drums, a set chock full of patient, far-reaching playing. This is a perfect party time palate cleanser, searing.

Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again

Deer Creek Music Center

A version that earns the submission. Inspired and filled out. Night prior is hot and the Deer Creek magic reigns.

Excellent generously stately and tumultuous intro. Laid back. Nice melt to black peter.

tight bucket yields this hoarse , ever so blue hot, blistering version!! Heavy late night express jerry soul rocker, big man sends it, gnarly version.

this is a golden stretch in terms of style and form for GD. Deep and thickly bright sprinting jam

Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
Feb. 26, 1977
Swing Auditorium

Major version. The Dead on a hot night do "slip" into a rather nasty "space-yer-face" versh of the second one in the trilogy. Incredible stuff, everybody locking into the moment is a treasure. Franklin's is a lovely ray of westward orange waking after a deliriously tempting yet frightful daydream, surfin' bliss. The Help on ain't no slouch either. Franklin's is so joyous and giving in its pleasure, but also warns against excess!! this version rules, frantic prairies of lawless exploration and battles
