Shoots you straight out of the cannon. Super tight jam into a sweet sweet Wharf Rat

Playin' In The Band

Civic Arena

Students of Playin's transformation from the Main Ten to country single to cosmic monster should check this. Tightly packed and just about to sprout.

Listen closely and you can hear exactly where April '71 becomes legendary.

Mega show here folks. Bobby's high in the mix and driving the train. The China's fine, but the Rider kicks serious ass.

Extensive and exploring jam suggesting what might have come of this song had it stayed in rotation a bit longer.

A wild ride. Great fun.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Can't see +31's comments, (beta glitch?) but I'm going to agree with Cuse15420: The hot youthful energy is packed so tight that China Cat just bursts at its seams. Then the Rider is full of exhuberence and passion. If you love '69 (and really, heads, really) then this is kick-assed version and all around epic show should really do it for you.
Turn On Your Love Light

Monterey Performing Arts Center

Listen to the whole show (in the right order cuz the Archive set order is screwy) and you'll get it. The whole thing is a Love Light Sandwich that climaxes so intensely you'll have to hose yourself down. Ohhhhhh, to have been there....

High velocity and somehow ordering chaos like only the '69 Dead knew how to do. The whole show is just a blazing glory.
