Easy Wind
Sept. 20, 1970
Fillmore East
Sorry: 2ble post. My brains are too blown to think straight.
Alright, 18 months later, and I can still say this is a hard rockin' fine assed version. Bobby takes the first solo after Pig's harp work, and he gives us an angular jagged slash-o-rama that just digs into my tripes (that's a compliment, by the way) before Jerry comes in and puts his word down like the angelbeast he can be. A great display of the '70 dynamics here: that the dangerous Dead, within and just after their folk-mellow acoustic could also come out with as anarchistic a song form as Easy Wind just speaks volumes about where they were in the devastating kulture of the era. Bravo boys, bravo.
