So perfect, it's hard to believe that people could improvise music like this together. This amazing show deserves a clean-up!

Overlooked: Between one of this site's favorite HCSs and one of its favorite Dark Stars is a perfect, articulate, and virtuoso version of Big River.

Just outrageous. Problematic show b/c of mix and cuts in the source. Not here: just a blizzard of jam.

Show is overlooked b/c mix problems, but they're absolutely on fire and this version shreds like all get-out. Call C. Miller for this one please!

Could be massively heady, but Billy is so high in the mix that it's hard to follow others. Any cleaner versions out there? Has everything but the mix.

Fast, tight and pure. Jer shreds, Bobby's on, the Devils are relentlessly perfect. This is great stuff.

A nice rocker with a beautiful, soulful jam coming out of the hella-outrageous Lovelight. Great end to an awesome show.

Quinn_76: Check out the Rambler Room show from November 17, 1978 for an amazing short acoustic set that will bliss you quite sweetly, friend.

Sorry for double post, but now I'll just say it. This is the big bomb. Really: this is atomic fire, the melting of suns, the collision of Dead galaxies. Harder wilder more explosive Dead I defy anyone to find.

Am I insane for saying that the TOO and 2nd Cryptical are harder acid metal than anything ever performed by Sabbath or Zep or ??? Jer shreds too hard. Must have really freaked out a few with this scary ride.
