Even though it cuts out after 16mins, a really fine 1972 TOO. Worth 16 minutes of anyones time.

Although only part of set 2 seems to exist, great show. Clean,good energy,starting to get that fall 73 jazziness.

A 5star+ show. I think one of the very best of 1969.

Uptown Theater

they kinda get out of step during the first solo, Jerry flubs the lyrics(it's Deal for chrissakes) 22 April 78 or March 1981 streets better for post 76 Deals.
Truckin'

Community War Memorial Auditorium

is this the correct date? IA doesn't show Truckin' being played this night.

Just a wee note-in light of the solution to the Betty Tapes saga and Dave and the gang now having them in the vaults- I understand that these Berkley shows are among the haul. Maybe a nice box set for next year?
