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.

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.

From the great northern train trip featured in Festival Express, and also a hard drivin' solid rocker of a version.

Disgruntledgoat is right about the sweet and gentle way they would bring people back down to earth. Say what you will about their relationship to the fans, but the Dead knew about heavy trips and how the right kind of spin could clear out the dread. In my era I feel like "China Doll" filled this role, often after something jagged and scary... a little whisper to put it all back to right.

Good comment gdtrfb Era E. And that kind of rabbit-out-of-the-hat mix of possibilities is what keeps me coming back for more.

You can actually hear a man's mind being blown in the transition to Stephen. His "Oh wow" says more than this comment ever could. What more can be said? This is a wonderful piece of inspired music, from start to finish. Thanks Ken and Judy!

Line up all the Easy Winds from June '70 and you see how it progresses into super-gritty badass territory. This one deserves its place at the top.
