The Music Never Stopped
June 11, 1976
Boston Music Hall

Baffling that this isn't here yet. Perfect tight ensemble playing, exhuberence and one idea flowing into another. Great recent C.Miller cleanup too.

Beautifully cleaned up version up now showcases the tight ensemble playing here. Bobby's tone is crystal clear and his fills are a treat to hear.

It Must Have Been The Roses

If you've passed by this show, you're missing out a sweetheart of a Roses here. Check out the new C.Miller clean pane of glass in the window.

Might As Well

Boston Music Hall

New C.Miller cleanup (10/17) brings in the love. Brilliant show opener with everything '76 has to offer: Hot mellow, lyricisms, and DJG at her best.

Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

Boston Music Hall

So many brilliant ones, but you're missing a real treat if you count this one out. Particularly strong Franklin's but the Slipknot! is brilliant too.

I Know You Rider
May 1, 1970
Alfred College

Immense Depth. We all know/love china>rider, yes me too. But listen to this Rider on its own and therein find a key to the immense depth to this band we love called the Grateful Dead.
Playin' In The Band
Sept. 9, 1974
Alexandra Palace

Show doesn't get much love, but this Playin' has everything in it except a complete meltdown. Good solid groove throughout with many stages, just as coralsandbelow put it.
Dark Star
April 29, 1972
Musikhalle

Symphonic arcs in this stellar example of why '72 Stars are so well loved. Rises, falls, rises again: melodic strands sneak into the melty bits, and all along they all just seem perfectly in sync. Needs several listens to appreciate just how truly epic (a word I don't use lightly) this one really is.
Eyes Of The World

Roosevelt Stadium

I can't stop listening to this. Really, it's been like four days straight and it just blows me away each time.

Friends don't think the Dead rock hard? Or that they're just 'a bunch of hippies'? Want to convince a metalhead that the Dead had been there and done all that over 40 years ago? Want to blow your freakin' mind? Here's your boy right here.
