Good version in an epic concert. One of the best bits of the first set. Second set is cosmic 73 stuff.

Good version from a very good concert. See if you can borrow this from a friend who has the complete set. The first set is cosmic

Dream Bowl

Listenable, more than. Most live versions are not, so that is praise for a start. Actually, this is one of the best and worth downloading. The whole show is top rate.

The Ark

A MUST for any fan of '69 Dead. Top-notch version. NB First 4 songs of the first set are pretty hot too, especially Morning Dew.

Just awesome. This should be in the top three.

Cubensis Phai below ... Heretic ! Burn him ! Seriously though, I have never been able to listen to post-Godchaux Dead. It just does not have the magic for me. I don't think Barton is best either. I prefer The Mosque or Tuscaloosa. NB Why do my comments appear to be inserted a few up rather than at the end ?

Matrix is good .... but the Bertrando AUD is better.
