Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower
April 21, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

A quick and driven entrance into the Help featuring Brent and Phil filling elusively and Jerry nailing it; Very intricate Knot; Infectious Franklins.

New Minglewood Blues
April 21, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

A roaring Minglewood; Check Weir's good slide solo, Garcia's ripping solo; Some fat Phil and some Gospel Brent.

Friend of the Devil
April 21, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

Poignant yet not somber, slow but not dragging; Mellow serene and emotive; Very strong full band interplay.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 31, 1984
SF Civic

Headiness such as this excluded? THIS S>F is downright profound. Perhaps due to the passing of Parish's wife and daughter, Garcia adds some dark vibes

Big River
Feb. 26, 1973
Pershing Municipal Auditorium

Love this Dick's Pick. 2/26 and 2/28 are two shows coming from a scaldingly good month of February 73'. Every show this month is worth checking out. Same could be said for the following month, but hey its all good. 73' is just classic as fuck. Also, too add, this Big River is smokin', Garcia tears apart the entire 4:30
They Love Each Other

Fuckin' sick
Estimated Prophet

Silva Hall, Hult Center

Strong version here. Great show all around.
China Doll

The Forum

Yes, agree with the above statement. This show is worth checking out, and if anybody is scared away by the AUD, it is a shame. This show is certainly underrated, and the AUD is not that bad, once listening the sound quality wont matter as much because the performance will speak for itself.
