Subject: SAMSON and Delilah - A song of religious signifigance Just listening to this on my regular speakers without headphones and that is working for me just fine.

"this guy down here just declared Nuclear War"

Bob Weir

What to make of the slower paced F.O.T.D.?

It really changes the character of the tune. However the build-up is pretty cool and gives a nice 'tragedy' feel to the song.

After F.O.T.D exited Second Set the only time I can think of it returning was as a 2nd set opener in Foxboro 7/2/89 -That was cool!

Sunrise . Terrapin -the former is a nice buildup to the latter

Playing in the Band-Wow good place for this tune and it is very well developed at over 27 minutes.

reminds me of those nicely jammed P.I.T.B circa 1973-74 (plus a little drums here as well)

Wharf Rat> Sugar magnolia

Good show, continues a nice strong run of show for January of 78

Sugar magnolia well jammed.

no encore Second night in a row.

I wonder if that was time constraints or just not feeling like adding anything else to what had already been done musically.

1/14 they seemed like they were done

but this night could have used

a nice Jerry ballad to close. IMHO - January 15, 2016SAMSON and Delilah - A song of religious signifigance

Subject: INSANE Music Never Stopped This Music Never Stopped is completely insane. The jam just keeps endlessly building like I've never heard in any other version. The energy is completely of the charts...I wouldn't go as far as to say it's the best ever or anything but it definitely ranks, and should be heard by all.



Unfortunately the sound quality of this recording is quite below par, and the second set is aud-only. My rating is just for the MNS jam. - September 18, 2012INSANE Music Never Stopped
