Rollicking and hard-charging good time set closer after a brain-melting Playin'.

In spite of muffled sound in need of a cleanup, this one has all the swagger and triumph of the best of '72. BTW fans take heed!

Surprised not to see this here. The trans has extra oomph to it and the band sails along in perfect sync. Great fun.

Pristine and fun. There's a cogent, almost album-tight quality to it.

Austin Municipal Auditorium

The mix is off at first, vocals lost, but hang in there and you'll hear one of Jerry's most heavy metal solos on Loser ever. Absolute shredder.

The jam AFTER the outro just so mysterious and beautiful.

Total Bird Song. This show does drag in a few places during in the first set, perhaps due to being in the studio for the month prior, or new equipment. But by Bird Song, they were absolutely flying and it shows throughout the rest of the show. Just what I search for in this song.

Takes its time. And every sweet minute builds and builds. One gets the impression that Jerry chose the set list on his birthday as a big present to all of us....

Monumentally massive 2nd set - with a great Dark Star before it. This is an experimental yet tight version. Around 14:00 it really takes off into new territory. A beauty.
Dark Star

Roosevelt Stadium

The real deal: Dark Star as endless source. It tickles your ears then floats you senseless, then moves into the farther corners of the cosmos. It stretches, it bends, it melts, it gets scary. Listen to it again and again and again, there's always something new in it....
