Not Fade Away

Paramount Theater

For a show that sometimes lacks a little energy in places, they end it with quite a bang. This outro is exceptionally good.

Slow star builds up huge head of steam and a slamin' jam. Ends funny, unsure whether >He's Gone or something else. Nice version, overlooked show.

Not too polished yet, but full of that new-song exhuberence. Great key work from Keith, and a funforall Reeeee-o Grand outro.

Playin' In The Band

A thing of (overlooked) beauty. Tight, muscular and coherent. It never drags. A perfect '72 Playin' here.

Bob Weir's Studio

You've never heard it like this: Rehearsal tape, listed as "Distorto". Track 2. An absolute treasure. Hard-freaking-core. No words, just rock.

I listen to it again and again, always hearing new things. One of my favourite versions of one of my favourite songs.

Great transition. Brilliant jam through the transition. Just an enormous show through and through.

Beautiful and mysterious. This version is exactly what I love about this song - even the aud patches in my version add to its psychedelic glory.

Dream Bowl

Grab hold to something and try to hang on. Remember to breath.

Really nice Cryptical on both sides. The "outro" is smoking hot and almost as long as the TOO meat in the sandwich.
