Pure mad mental, as we used to say in Scotland. WOW, they really just let rip. Good track to dance to if you need to work of some high energy

Ship of Fools
May 19, 1974
Portland Memorial Coliseum

A good SOF indeed. This is one of those songs which need Jerry's voice to be in good order which is what lets down the 1978 SOF's onwards. even May 9 he is starting to strain a bit.

If anyone doubts the greatness of Jerry and his top guitarist status, just play them this. Clear film and close up of Jerry's playing, especially during the 2nd solo. A chance to see the master in action

Listening today(28/6/2017)to the whole 2nd set, but PLEASE please please, for your own well being take the 40 or so minutes to listen to this MLB into my own favourite US Blues ever. This is the whole band in sync, playing beautifully, hauntingly,GODDAM brilliantly.

This show is perfection, from the opening of Dupree's Diamond Blues through a superb Mountains of the Moon>DS>TOO. I'm beginning to understand those old Deadheads who reckon it all went downhill after the 1960's! (only joking. I rate them right up until 1978)
