The intro isn't much, but the outro just swells up and hits you in the head like a bag of hammers. Explosive power. Outrageous.

Massive crunching slammer. Wrongfully ignored show. Hot Cryptical outro, too.

Why is this classic and historically important show ignored? They sound great here. Enjoy.

Smokey gut-bucket blooze. Damned fine.

Great vocals and wild harmony with a sweet jam from an historically important show.

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.
