Brilliant quality aud recording from Glassberg. https://archive.org/details/gd1977-05-03.aud.glassberg.motb.0042.86241.flac16 Give the whole show a whirl, even by May '77 standards it's good.

Baltimore Civic Center

After looking down this list, I went to this show and started at the beginning. Wow,what a good He's Gone, but what a good show all in all. A Candyman(rare for 73, Jerry flubbs the lyrics but makes up for it. Great show.

this gets played each of the three nights of this mini run. All are stellar. 1972 is such a fine year for the Dead and this song. I can't pick the best 3 from the September run of shows let alone from the whole year. My brain hurts again.........
