The Music Never Stopped

Boston Music Hall

Baffling that this isn't here yet. Perfect tight ensemble playing, exhuberence and one idea flowing into another. Great recent C.Miller cleanup too.

Beautifully cleaned up version up now showcases the tight ensemble playing here. Bobby's tone is crystal clear and his fills are a treat to hear.

It Must Have Been The Roses

If you've passed by this show, you're missing out a sweetheart of a Roses here. Check out the new C.Miller clean pane of glass in the window.

Might As Well

Boston Music Hall

New C.Miller cleanup (10/17) brings in the love. Brilliant show opener with everything '76 has to offer: Hot mellow, lyricisms, and DJG at her best.

Help On The Way > Slipknot > Franklin's Tower

Boston Music Hall

So many brilliant ones, but you're missing a real treat if you count this one out. Particularly strong Franklin's but the Slipknot! is brilliant too.

The Other One
Jan. 17, 1969
Civic Auditorium

Fans of psychedelicore and hard core scary-ride Dead that shoots you out of a cannon, blows you to pieces, then brings you back in to land maybe just a little shook up by it all will love this one. Should rate much higher here.

Melodic, adventurous, and straight forward. Beautiful spontaneous composition and development of the DS theme, without going into wild interstellar space or melting down. Just lovely.

Needs a lot more love. If there were no other recordings of the Grateful Dead except this MM-DS-SS-11 segment, they'd still be known as the best jamming band of the age.

Thanks Dude420. Them's kind words. This one is really solid. I always felt that "serious" heads had some weird chip on their shoulders about St. Stevie. Why? 'Cause they dropped it or cause Jerry didn't want to play it? Cause we held signs asking for it and never got it? So what! This is what pinned me to the wall at the tender heady age of twelve and got me counting the months before I could catch 'em live. Was that in the Aoxomoxoa era? Hell no, but thanx to the archive, I can get it now. This is killer Dead, hardcore psychedelic nobullschittgetonthebusorgetoffthebuslieonthefloorandtryandholdon dangerdead.
