Red Rocks Amphitheater

Soulful, melodic soloing, with Phil interweaving with bombs. On the AUD (Charlie Miller) Phil is clearly audible, its thunder. Certified grade A.

Cowboy western polka at its finest

Universal Amphitheatre

Powerful and forceful; Rising and falling, opening; Shattering, weeping; Closing and crashing.

The Other One

Universal Amphitheatre

Tearing a hole in the mind, spinning and drilling right into the cortex; Feel the pulse, the synergy; The twilight zone

Cleveland Music Hall

Smooth and funky; Garcia's tone is just right; Lesh is cruising; very strong opener.

Second above comments-- the transition is quite something.. Vocals are heartfelt and definitive, Stranger>1/2>Weight is a pleasant surprise to open a very solid 1st set.

Samson and Delilah
Feb. 5, 1978
Uni Dome, U of Northern Iowa

DP 18 is crackling with an abundance of energy that places it in the upper echelon of live dead releases. This Samson is torn to absolute shreds, Garcia is a man possessed, if I had to guess the stage was on fire following this version.
