so i am going to toss in a few....

6/10/73- RFK- was the #1 downloaded show for a long long time-they played the day before in 100 degree weather and kinda stunk-this show started at 6pm. set 3 was with dicky betts and johnny johanson

6/22/73- vancouver- you could do the whole show but the he's gone jam is a must imho

10/30/80 radio city music hall- this show was broadcast on showtime once and never again to my knowledge- boy i would love to have a copy of that!@
set three- another he's gone jam except this one has billy cobham sitting in on drums- so make that 3 drummers! make sure not to leave out drums/space on cd. One of the most agressive other ones. PS you if dont know who billy cobham is? you should-lol

MSG - 10/14/94- the ultimate scarlet/fire. i dare anyone to think otherwise-lol- also a fine attics

ok i know its one mans opinion... feel free to toss a few in.

10/20/68 and 10/12/68.

For fans of Primal Dead these must not be left out. The August '68 shows were made famous by Two From the Vault, but these two are as good in every regard. TFV is my favorite Dead release, so that's really saying something!

Right on, It's nice to have someone show you where the pearls are at, so you don't end up with nothing but clams.

The winterland run that they released a couple years back from '73 is one of my favorites.

With all the dicks picks, box sets and 'road trips' releases its getting hard not to cite official releases. Seems like all my favorites are getting purged from the archives.org site as time goes by. On the up-side I just found out that a friend I gave most all of my compressed SHN discs to about 8 years ago still has them!!!!
