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

Deal
June 28, 1985
Hershey Park Stadium

meat thrashing, skull punk folding chair smashing Mr. McMahon Fuck you mr benson Deal. Hold onto your hard hats starting around 5 minutes ish, staggering segment of excellently activated GD on full volcanic blast with kreutzmann shuffle fanning, never misses getting a nanosecond ahead of the beat in that tastiest of searching ways, phil bombs did i say? Wish i could listen to this first set on vinyl, exquisite

Tear jerker... knock it out of the park!!!!!
Bird Song
June 28, 1985
Hershey Park Stadium

captain kirk mid 80's bird, multi-dimensionally high octane one!!! Starts speedy and assured with killing solos like the rest of the first set, then drops into space and kicks off a jerry triple
Ain't Superstitious (Meet Me on the Bottom)
June 28, 1985
Hershey Park Stadium

This one finds its footing and boom rocket fuel for mars... Absolutely shredding. Good ole trouble ahead blues with swirling brent and percolating dark roast.
Ramble On Rose
