Want to know what it felt like to be Phil's axe, I mean like every single goddamned fiber of it? Strap on headphones and now you'll know.

Capping a brilliant show and hiding a nice Mountain Jam. This show doesn't get all the love it deserves.

This is why I listen to the Dead.

Check out the C.Miller mix for great rocking balls-out Winter '73 Dead. Perfect mix with every instrument clear and balanced.

Stealth show with pristine versions throughout a perfect 1st set - and then the 2nd set just takes off.
Playin' In The Band

Boston Music Hall

Listening to this one a lot this week, and I agree with ferretstew. The band is just so tight and together. The energy builds and builds, and this version stands out for its coherence and the arc of its composition. I also love 02 Dec., which gets much weirder, but this one shows off their virtuosity.

Never have I dug this song so much as this version. Sweet but strong.
