Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Possibly the highest energy piece in the whole show. An excellent jam that left the crowd smiling, for certain.

Not Fade Away

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.

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

Thanks darkstar67! I'll check that out. I love how the Tapers Section just keeps on keeping on. I dig the Tobin Matrix for this show too :https://archive.org/details/gd1976-06-10.matrix.tobin.84985.sbeok.flac16/gd76-06-10d2t07.flac

This moves through phases along the way but gets there in style! Hits brilliant experimental patches and flirts at weirdness (never really getting there) when all at once-blam-o! It lands you in... BIG RIVER?!? What a mind-fuck that must have been for the Heads in attendance. Gotta love them for such spontaneity.

Don't let a scuffy AUD scare you away from this pristine Cassidy. Bobby and Donna are in sweet harmony, and the band has that 'hot mellow' perfection: Not rushing, but scorching earth. Jerry swoops and soars, riding thermals behind that Cadillac like an eagle chasing prey.
