To my ears, Bob's best overall performance here, and the whole band really seems to be feeding off the same special energy

Quite possibly vastly underrated...Keith's work is magnificent, and he is obviously feeling it from the start in this show

Based on set list alone, the jam portion stands out...this Terrapin kicks it off very powerfully

Just listened to this tonight and the death of Pigpen clearly still weighs heavily on the band, but they shrug the weight thru the joy of playing together and the memory of Pig...If you can't hear it, you might not be listening

Totally de facto...had never really given this one a solid listen...Glad I did. Came here to post it, and pleased to see it is already highly thought of cuz I really dug it. Crowd reaction after tells the tale. There's something different about this one

Auditorium Theatre

This has long been one of my faves...it is most definitely rip-roaring to the max...it never fails to pump me up
