Or maybe the 12th. Who cares. It's simply beautiful.

Totally free. There are Mountain Jam themes, met with Stephen Jams, then Bid You Goodnight themes. Seems they couldn't get enough. Good stuff.

The single best transition into Cosmic Charlie (from TOO) that I know of. From an era when they still meant it as a psychedelic anthem... Love this.

Forgotten show with a high-voltage and energetic jam, intersected with a sweet Attics. Great show, low quality AUD.

Not Fade Away
Sept. 19, 1970
Fillmore East

It's 1970 and the Dead are all things packed into one like the last picasecond before the bigbang: psychedelia, blues, country, electric jazz, protopunk, lonesome cowboy badass, spacefoyoface, its all there. This NFA just kicks ass and has everything inside it.
Drums -> Space
April 19, 1982
Baltimore Civic Center

That's some deep dark water there. Love the prankster vibe. I bet they freaked some people way the fuck out with this. But nice of the boys to takes us back down with a sweet good-feeling wheel.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 25, 1977
The Mosque

Everything I love about the '77 Scarlets. Concise, sure, but also tight and uptempo without being rushed or speedy. Exploring new sounds and reaching out into the stratosphere. The FTM is brilliant, too.
Dark Star

Fillmore East

Definitive setlist anyone? Archive has a killer TOO, Dire Wolf and a great Casey Jones before the MC introduces the Dead (?!). Incomplete early show? Oh and this Dark Star is amazing. Duane Allman brings on the hard, not as trippy as some, but good old rock and freaking roll.
The Other One

Confusion b/w archive and setlists.net. Anyone with info on this show?
