Tight and hot. Something in the vocals at this show went just perfect too, adding to the intensity.

Greatness in this one: Powerful ensemble vocals.

Phil & Ned: By far the most compact and Space-like. Gargantuan Martian landscapes and insect-shaped UFOs. Sounds like Frippertronics. Heavy stuff.

Fully rockin' blowout to close a lovely summertime 1st set: Not my favorite song, but this one really kicks.

Mega-monster just dives into complete madness with a Phil solo for the ages and wild tweaking from all sides. Much fun.

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.

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.
