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

He's Gone
Aug. 27, 1972
Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

Yes. I've often felt that this is up there with the best...of 1972. I love this song so much, especially once they got the outro portion sussed and when they all got groany and old time religion type wailing. But this one is impossible to beat so i guess it is top 3 anyway. maybe. Oh God, my brain hurts.........

NO. If only she had always sung(or been allowed to )sing the way she does in these 1976 shows-Bobby as well. Very little shrieking and the songs rock all the better for it.
Dark Star
Sept. 27, 1972
Stanley Theatre

Too scary! I need to listen to this with some other experienced Deadheads(which I only know on the internet) and maybe not be straight listening to it either. Gets very weird and Phil sounds out the deepest darkest pulsing heart of a Dark Star. Ghostly noises from the other side of the stage-where are we? Are we alive still?? Thank God, Cumberland Blues-maybe I just fell asleep and had a dark dream?
