The AUD is amazing. Keith shines, and everybody's into it. Bootstrap '76 knockin' down your door.

To the point - and totally out of the blue. This is Dead magic.

One of their truly psychedelic songs, on a truly psychedelic night. Incredible transition from Cryptical.

Playin' In The Band
Aug. 12, 1972
Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

Around 7:00 (on the listed source) Keith bombards the band and Garcia takes up the offer. Intricate and complex, incredibly packed. This show is filled with outstanding playing!
Bird Song

Sacramento Memorial Auditorium

Huge! After listening to the Veneta version for a while, this one fills the same place - and more.
Dancin' in the Streets

Cobo Arena

On the aud.warner source, the user "npjg" left a pretty good comment regarding the quality of this show. It's almost too perfect - especially the second set. The highlight is this sandwich!
Dancin' in the Streets
April 15, 1970
Winterland Arena

Billy, Mickey and Phil lock into the Cosmic Charlie tease at about 9 minutes, since Bobby played a lick just before. They leave it quickly when Garcia pushes the return to the theme. Cool version, but not the best of the 1970 versions.
New Potato Caboose
Dec. 7, 1968
Bellarmine College

Really underrated show.
