This is a real nice version of Baby Blue to close this '84 show. Super yummy Dylan cover.

"Come to Daddy on an inside straight!" Jerry belts it out nicely on this one. Good version!

I'm listening to this one in headphones right now & it's super cool. Dead were ahead of their time with experimental, ambient, electronica.

One of the best, if not the best The Other One's from Europe '72. It has sounds I've never heard in any T.O.O., Dark Star of PITB, before. Really cool. Worth a close listen.

One of the best Good Lovin’s I’ve ever heard. Pig is in fire and the band is tight, tight, TIGHT!

Oh, wow. Jerry's vocals, perfect and heartfelt. Keith's teardrop-piano fills AND Pigpens organ, in the same song. Jerry's solo flowing out of his fingers like small, silent lightning bolts. How'd we get this lucky?

I have to admit, this just might be the Granddaddy of them all. Just watched the live video. It's truly mind-expansive. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JukZBGgv8I
