Hartford Civic Center

Good groove, and you have to love the crowd singing along and driving Jerry to give it all with his vocals

Comes from a great Space (and don't mind the AUD patch).

Great ending vocal jam with "Nobody's Fault but Mine" tease.

Comments

Friend of the Devil
June 24, 1970
Capitol Theatre

Worth an up vote for the stage banter that follows, much less the music.
Me and My Uncle
June 24, 1970
Capitol Theatre

Listen with the NRPS set in between the early and late Dead sets for full psychedelic cowboy effect.
Not Fade Away
June 24, 1970
Capitol Theatre

Wanted to add another comment. This has some great moments in the NFA material itself, and also in the "Mountain Jam"-style section that follows. After that, Garcia rips off riffs that sound like the belong to the transitions of those stellar '72 –> Riders. If you like good Jerry, give it a spin.
Easy Wind
June 24, 1970
Capitol Theatre

This set is justifiably well known for the massive sequence that follows this tune, but the NFA>Wind is also top shelf. Worth a dust-off if it's been a while.

Broome County Arena

Yes yes yes. You really hear Jerry searching for something with this one.
