Billy's high in the mix, and he drives. A perfect snapshot, with Bobby's sweet young voice in perfect form and a solid driven pulse throughout.

High-voltage and up tempo shuffle. Great sounding C. Miller cleanup.

They push the energy up and up and up. Special transition into OMSN. An all-round high voltage jamming show. Underrated.

High energy, shitkickingly good. The energy in this is off the charts.

Pig on a ferocious rampage, the band sizzling hot behind him, and all this in the first set. This show deserves more love.

Viola Lee Blues
April 6, 1969
Avalon Ballroom

A cappella finish after someone apparently kicked out their instrument amps right at the end. Good old Grateful Dead just said "F. it, let's keep singing". Love it.

Real blues. Pigpen was on this night and the show belongs to him.
Wharf Rat

Hollywood Bowl

Thanks MerryJerry Wacked: You're right. This is an exploratory, muscular and gorgeous version. Seems they were putting a lot of energy in this song all tour. Brother Bertrando left us a great AUD not to be missed.
Playin' In The Band
July 21, 1974
Hollywood Bowl

An absolutely smoking, brilliant Playin'. A wild ride full of the wheels within wheels of groupmind. Sounds like they could have been headed into a MLB jam before they arrived at Wharf Rat. And the reprise kicks serious ass.

May - June '74 Wharf Rats just slay me. This one is so beautiful. My god, is it beautiful.
