Still brand new. This just pops and crackles with energy. Great fun.

Not for audiophobes, cause it's like 10th-gen Maxell 120s, but every bit the '71 CR&S sound I love. Beneath the fuzz is a beauty.

Tectonic jamming shifting out of WR back into Playin' of intricate interplay and staggering beauty.

Ripped out of future spacetime and unlike any other from the era. Sounds like they invented MIDI right on stage. Minds forever blown, I'm sure.

More love here. After a firework-filled Sugar Mag opener, this lovely lady puts the solid groove down. Jerry just gives more and more and more.

Fillmore East

I try to avoid absolutes, but this is (currently) my favorite acoustic set. Beaut of a Dark Hollow here, folks. Bobby's voice is just perfect.

War Memorial

I'll take this one, thank you. Takes this tune way up over the top with high energy soloing. Great great show.
Big Railroad Blues

Fillmore East

Convincing evidence for 1970 this. Brilliant, perfect acoustic Dead.

McMahon Stadium

Okay, I'll take the bait: you got a link that's not on the archive? Let us know. I'd love to hear some rare privileged early speedway dead.
