Groovy yoga from soft space to barroom swashbuckler of a brent wheel. Crack harmonies and psyched out blissy vibe. Pummeling!! no jam

Embryonic, unhinged and primal! Tiger lead is positively lacerating, everyone in attendance was split into dust

powerful one from a 5-show hockey rink run. Zeus bolt tone and magnitude, exciting stuff.

Dead playing this in this year is like the beatles doing "all my loving" in 1964. It's a complete crystallization, and definition, of rock as art. Groovy and dirty mississippi and the ending jam ascends to the highest heavens

got a brilliant white-hot sheet of goosebumps at the opening notes of this. Yep, streaming platforms are the must for this show, no SBD source on archive. (i always try for a matrix) "Jerry's beatiful Fenario" version per a news clipping (http://www.gratefulseconds.com/2016/01/april-30-1977-my-only-dead-show-in-new.html) and it sure is lovely.... Solo is rousing. Verses are focused and elegant. F yeah
