Playin' In The Band

Musikhalle

A mysterious beauty. Understated, elegant, and crystal clear, but shredding and fun. A nice little gem.

Hard rocker. Great interplay and the band at the top of their '72 game. "No. 1 in Turlock, and that's a fact". - Bobby.

Uptempo, almost a shuffle, like the best of the '72s. High energy 1st set.

Powerful version with insane Phil muscular bass kicking into a sweet Wharf Rat. A gem of a show.

Sneaks up calm then hits critical mass: Suddenly you are the blade of grass, the dew on the crops, the explosive heat of summertime. Love it.

Sweet, mellow groove.

The drumming in TOO is some of the most powerful tribal ensemble-playing by the Dead ever. Oh, and the Cryptical outro just blows me away - getting heavier and hotter until it melts into Potato.

Might just like this one as much or more as 12.10.68. Guess I'll have to listen to both of 'em again....

Be cool <getinmyslice>, there's plenty of dead to go around and it's nice to see how different folks like different versions. The site can be just for "favorites" if you want, or also for interesting versions, historically important ones, curiousities, great jams that aren't the best but still good, forgotten shows, etc. It's a big dead world, friend.

Best Cryptical ever? The reprise is just insane. The OO is hyper ballistic too. A great '68 all '68 lovers need.
