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.

Big River

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

excellently mournful.... crestfallen

brief but kool, sets up an exceptionally hot sequence and simmers at a subtle pique, picaresquely beckoning. Handsome

Deal

The Spectrum

Type 2. Positively blinding with veneer. Ferrari style playing, Lesh walking like jimmy garrison and the devils laying down a western swing thing. Pulpit vocal, generous between verse solo, mind shredding intensity on the build and accented battering ram charges of the Dead's signature roast of breezily equitable yet hauntingly psychedelic americana infusion. Welnik fanning, extra innings scorcher!!! mind reading jam
Eternity

The Spectrum

Weir on acoustic and spinning wistful NorCal jazzy blues, thoughtful chorus-laden jerry, lots of yummy bongo and cymbal garnish. Casually seamless, beautifully choreographed. Ace version
