Have not yet been able to crack into '90 Dead much, tho I've heard it's different than other latter years, and this helps that case...Grate!

Knowing how epic the following date is, Im surprised I wasn't aware of this...nice long 6' intro and transition into Fire w/o words

Didn't even know Box of Rain existed in '70, or '71 or most of '72 for that matter...WTF? Rough recording, but sweet nonetheless...Edit/Response to Steg: Must admit I didn't know that until recently, but what I was getting at was live performances.

Classic indeed...raw power and energy. Everything from this recording is a force.
