Because every song in this show deserves to be here. This is a solid rocking version, just excellent.

One of the perfect ones, and one of the last songs from this epic show to be posted here: A near perfect show from '72, one of the best.

Jer: "This is a new song... and it goes exactly like this". Pigpen: "No it don't." Either way, it kicks like the good stuff.

Shocked it isn't here yet. Did you stop at Donna's beastly howl? If you did, you missed Jerry rip spacetime. Listen up and dig this Playin', really.

"Thank's Texans" Phil sez to the NY crowd. This one is a rollicking good time. Jer is all over it behind a great Cowboy Bob showcase.

Sweet, mellow groove.

The drumming in TOO is some of the most powerful tribal ensemble-playing by the Dead ever. Oh, and the Cryptical outro just blows me away - getting heavier and hotter until it melts into Potato.

Might just like this one as much or more as 12.10.68. Guess I'll have to listen to both of 'em again....

Be cool <getinmyslice>, there's plenty of dead to go around and it's nice to see how different folks like different versions. The site can be just for "favorites" if you want, or also for interesting versions, historically important ones, curiousities, great jams that aren't the best but still good, forgotten shows, etc. It's a big dead world, friend.

Best Cryptical ever? The reprise is just insane. The OO is hyper ballistic too. A great '68 all '68 lovers need.
