At risk of putting all '71 up here. Tell me to stop if too much! I just love the twangy country versions, knowing the evolution in store for it.

Extremely powerful. Strong vocals, massive sound, tremendous jam, great mix. Coming off 30 minutes of TOO like a parachute from the ionosphere.

Intricate zigzagging solo work from Jerry, tight ensemble playing. Doesn't ever "soar" like some of them, but more exploratory and compelling.

They announce the set-break, then decide to blow out the tubes on this one, capping one of the best 1st sets of 1971.

Snarling guitar solo and great organ sound in an excellently mixed (Bobby audible always a plus) SBD. The whole first set is sweet heady goodness.

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.
