Train rippin' down the hot coals of the 1973 track.

Cameron Indoor Stadium

Can't believe I'm submitting this. Long and fun drum circle that's notable because our Jer Bear whips out a steel pan and joins in.

It Must Have Been The Roses

Wembley Arena

Jerry tearing the standards book asunder with this elegant poetic brilliance

Big River
Oct. 31, 1990
Wembley Arena

For a few minutes wembley in '90 becomes the fillmore in the summer of 1970, the way the Dead just slide into a no-nonsense Big River. Shivers

Smokin' and refined version of this deep cut, on "All Hallow's Eve" as a chap might say

Playin' In The Band
Aug. 27, 1972
Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

God damn, staggering Playin'. They're so damn locked in they're starting to sound like Coltrane, McCoy, Jimmy Garrison and Elvin Jones. This is definitely the only rock music i would compare to that. I think 8/27/72 has to be my choice for best Dead gig ever.
Sugar Magnolia
April 7, 1972
Wembley Empire Pool

Breathtaking transition from a sprawling, regal Dark Star into a RIPPING Sugar Mag on this gig. Pure Euro 72 goodness.
