Strong St. Stephen into Casey to close the show with force..."What would be the answer to the answer man? Drivin that train"

This song and the band were both in such great and wonderful place at the time, and it really shows here

Good Lovin'->Caution->WhoDoYouLove->Caution->Good Lovin, all after an epic DS->Sugar Mag. Amazing that reaching such heights was typical in this era

I have come around on the notion that the El Paso is a nice weird turn, or as one post said, a nice Prankster moment. And, yeah, maybe the world would've ended if they had gone into Dew, so that's a good thing. By extension, one might say, the Pranksters saved the world.

And who could argue with the guy? "anything" they played in that glorious year was worth a listen

Fillmore East (Late Show)

That's fantastic. Seriously, are there any contemporaries that can come even close to the Dead when it comes to drawing emotions out of listeners? I highly doubt it. Nothin like 'em.

I'd say go there indirectly, and experience this greatest of all jam sets in its entirety.
