Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Marin County Civic Center

S>F for the ages... Scarlet very solid; perhaps top 3 Fire... funky and spacey transition

Bobby screaming and cursing, great 84'

An almost inexplicable dark undertone envelops this Althea, very cool 84' version

Needs more votes now! This FOTD is americana at its finest.

Breathtaking, and obscenely wonderful. The descent into the bluegrass jam into Morning Dew, is beyond extraordinary. This, is the show for me. Everything about it, and it might just be that DP 36 is my favorite Dick Pick of all time. Although, it is subjective I must say this is a deserving top 5 Dark Star.

Fillmore East (Late Show)

Garces, were in agreement here. 1970, for me is one of the pinnacle years of Grateful Dead's psychedelia. This show exemplifies many reasons in which I always come back to this year, and love it every time. This Dark Star is tremendous, and should be heard by all who "get" what this band is all about.

This is a strong version.
It's All Over Now Baby Blue

Dane County Coliseum

Something was in the water this night.... Ethereal Black Peter that is one of the best ever, in the same show and set as this encore Baby Blue. Are you kidding me, what a great way to end this set. Whole show is underrated.
