Truckin'
Jan. 24, 1971
Seattle Center Arena

Easily overlooked show - the Truckin' opener is a giant tidal wave red carpet.

Not Fade Away
March 21, 1972
Academy of Music

Picture Perfeck Academy of Music NFA! Kreutzmann and Weir scoot this gem along.

The Other One
Dec. 12, 1970
Santa Rosa Fairgrounds

Adventure soundtrack - the group plays out a number of scenes. Garcia's the acrobatic narrator for the most part. Superb and interactive.

The Other One
Dec. 10, 1969
Thelma Theater

Big and round. Lesh is the wacked-out chauffeur. What a cool, bizarre run.

Big River
Nov. 20, 1973
Denver Coliseum

A strike-zone era Big River. Smooth & prickly.

Playin' In The Band
May 4, 1972
Olympia Theater

Bubbly and graceful. Perfection.
Dancin' in the Streets
Sept. 25, 1976
Capital Centre

Garcia is slippery and persistent. Really nice Dancin' - nice, intense jam.
The Other One
Jan. 22, 1978
McArthur Court, U of Oregon

A scorching Other One - the guitars blow up. Then into the insane Close Encounters theme. Kwality shit.
Playin' In The Band
Sept. 28, 1972
Stanley Theatre

Smooth N' Self-Assured. TM
St. Stephen
Feb. 27, 1969
Fillmore West

Blistering. Whereas I think Dark Star peaked in 1970, 1969 was St. Stephen's year. Massive and dramatic storytelling.
