Sweet Jerry vocals. A delicate ship setting sail into the post 1974 seas. Good harmonies from Bob and Donna. An overlooked show from an overlooked yea

One of best of 1974. Tight, Jerry inventive and confident, good soloing. Everything a Deal should be. Give it a listen.

Comes out of a MLB jam, a big fat mellow groove sets out what is one of those weeks of really good versions.

Cold Rain and Snow
Sept. 3, 1972
Folsom Field, University of Colorado

Just a run of pure magic. 45 years ago starting tomorrow with 2017. and 40 years since 1977- a year of great anniversary shows, if like me you try and listen to a show from that date. I think that there is only a partial soundboard for this show, but a certain Mr Miller could work his magic, I'm certain it would be almost as good.

C'mon guys, stop what you're doing and listen to this. You will thank me for it.
Deal
Nov. 18, 1972
Hofheinz Pavilion

A very good Deal from Fall 1972 a sound that I love. A superb show( well what's available) One can only wonder how good the 1st set must have been.
Hurts Me Too
May 4, 1972
Olympia Theater

One of the best, great piano playing as well as jerry's slide and Pig's soulful singing.I prefer this to the night before and IMO only March 22/3/72: 11/5/72 and 24/5/72 are better.
