The Music Never Stopped
April 14, 1978
Cassell Coliseum - Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University

Bob blows some lyrics, but the midsection and outro are fluent and soaring. Lot on the list not as good as this one.

Honorable mention on the old dead clubhouse page, but not on here. There's a youtube video with great sound. See for yourself.

A unique sounding Cassidy. Parts of this almost sound like a studio release of a different band playing like the dead.

Not much that I can add to the original post. Listen to it and you’ll likely hear the same.

The seaweed SBD is it and this transition is fantastic.

From when it mattered the most, this one is on fire.
Bird Song

Anaheim Stadium

Spectacular peak. It may be short because of the 3rd set, but the playing is so good. A lot of winners today.

Yes, this is summery for sure. The linked source sounds great and everything is tight as can be, even if it is short.
