Me and My Uncle
Nov. 17, 1971
Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Two things: (1) the middle of a searing Other One > MAMU > Other One fest and (2) Garcia loses his mind (or mine) at the end of the solo.

Cryptical Envelopment
Nov. 17, 1971
Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Drop dead gorgeous, lithe, and restaurant quality perfect.

Candyman
May 1, 1980
Greensboro Coliseum

Clear To Hell - Hear how a luscious Candyman absorbs a crowd in NC.

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Feb. 23, 1971
Capitol Theater

Lately I think of Port Chester. Fab 4 Alignment. Limber. Ambidextrous.

St. Stephen
Dec. 29, 1969
Boston Tea Party

The peak is like a merry-go-round spinning out of and back into control and then, albeit briefly, out and in of control again.

Eyes Of The World
Sept. 26, 1973
War Memorial

The horn works a little less for me sixteen months later. Still give it a big thumbs up b/c the group is not really slowed down by any of it. They're in smooth-ass form.
Dancin' in the Streets
June 9, 1976
Boston Music Hall

This is some pure '76 syncopated crossword puzzle magic. Never sounded like this before or after. What a great show.
Dark Star
Aug. 21, 1968
Fillmore West

I'm with DS67 here - best 13 minute Dark Star ever. Better than many heralded longer ones, dare I say. Dare! Dare!
Eyes Of The World
May 7, 1977
Boston Garden

An almost liquid refreshment. Right around the peak of the two drummer Eyes. Smooth combustion. Complete control.
Wharf Rat
Dec. 6, 1971
Felt Forum, Madison Square Garden

Majestic. An exemplar. #alwayswantedtousethatword
