1974 and Ship of Fools go together like peanut butter and jelly. Full of emotion. They're really giving their all in this.

Like the breaking of a dam, this just flows at a truly ferocious pace. Jerry is relentless in his playing, the second solo will knock your socks off.

Any '74 version of this tune is a treat. Incredibly lovely with great Keith lines. Billy sways.

Definitive for its time. The soundcheck gave us a preview, here's the full thing. Solid version.

Just a damn near perfect performance. Shocked not to see this one submitted. One of MANY highlights from this show.

"Well this next one is dedicated to Portland's Skid row, for no reason at all, just to prove my point that life is like a symphony." -Bobby "yeller dawg" Weir

The wonderful reviewers above put it best when describing this transcendent Comes a Time. This whole show needs so much more love.

UNDERRATED. If a Dark Star has a second verse, you are guaranteed a hell of a ride. The jamming before the first verse is THE transitive nightfall of diamonds. Awe inspiring flashes of colors that envelope you into this otherworldly realm. Experimentation is the defining factor of this Dark Star, and while venturing deep into the void, you never feel yourself completely disillusioned with what's going on even at its most frantic. Billy and Phil summon an ancient, chimeric, beast that the band completely unleashes unto the audience. Jerry breaks conventions and melts the audience into a puddle and creates this haunted empty space of inverted colors. A section of music that challenges everything there is to know about music itself. Peak Dead.

What else is there to be said about this masterpiece? The Magnum Opus of Bird Songs and deservedly earns its stripes as one of the best exploratory jam vehicles for the band. Magic in musical form, and swirling soaring jazzy psychedelia that the band embodies perfectly in this once in a lifetime meditative performance. Each note is a drop of rain.

My current favorite Loser, this just hits all the marks for me personally. Emotive and full of unrelenting passion. Just perfect for me.
