Subject: Better than the first day I gave 05/23, the previous day, five stars. Well this one is at least six. Wonderful playing and tighter than the first day, truly superb 1969 Grateful Dead. - July 25, 2014Better than the first day

Subject: RT4/1 How do you top a 30-minute Lovelight closer the previous night of a two-day festival? WIth another 30-minute Lovelight, yo!



This is easily the better of the two days, but that's nitpicking - they're both great, and certainly the Road Trips release is worth investing in (you can easily splice together the entire sets for both nights with the Bonus Disc).



Bobby's yellow dog joke here was the first one I had ever heard, way, way back in the old tape-trading days ("anyway....well anyway.....anyways, well....")



He Was a Friend of Mine is gorgeously nostalgic, but the big news here is the on-a-dime emergence of St. Stephen from Drums, melted down into a totally wild, Florida-swamp inferno....heady, driving '69 madness here, kids. - May 24, 2013RT4/1

Subject: nobody seems to have mentioned lovelight A unique and noteworthy version.



They closed the night before with Lovelight and opened this day with it. Wonder how people felt about hearing the same song twice back to back? Either way I would have been psyched cause this lovelight is completely different from the previous days. More exploratory and uninhibited than the before nights closer.



Naturally the Alligator>St.Stephen is also worth mentioning. One of the top shows of 1969 for sure. - May 19, 2011nobody seems to have mentioned lovelight

Subject: update 7/13/10 man, this is just a classic show all the way thru. lovelight and rag are well done, but starting with what surely must be one of the most gorgeous and intense friend of mines ever, this show takes off for regions not yet visited again. as mentioned before, the china cat>eleven is just a monster, but it doesn't end there. death don't is also wonderful (the transition is fine, maybe a problem w/ the stream before?) as well as alligator, and then a mind bending st. stephen that instead of ending with william tell reprises the "bridge theme" and bursts into blinding feedback. wow. just drenched in it...don't miss out on this one...



************************************************

unreal segue on the china cat>11. absolutely rip roaring china cat! a truly unique paring. is it just me though or is the transition to Death don't a little choppy? - July 14, 2010update 7/13/10

Make sure you get all the codecs for nero and winamp though,,,,,hope this helps.....great year for the dead 69' When they still rocked! unlike Late 70's, 80, and 90's dead.

Subject: Fantastic

Ever made a mix tape/cd that stuck in your car stereo for so long that the combinations solidify in your head, strong enough that when you hear a song from the mix elsewhere in life, you involuntarily hear the next mix-track in your head? He Was a friend of Mine is what's playing in my mind, when ever I hear Jerry slowly sing, "everybody's Doin' That Raggggggg" It's my difinitive version, it might be yours too?



email me at fieldhouse11277@ This show is great, short of a dark star, and any further connection to the workingman's material that would blend into the later half of 69, this show has it all, and great sound to boot.Ever made a mix tape/cd that stuck in your car stereo for so long that the combinations solidify in your head, strong enough that when you hear a song from the mix elsewhere in life, you involuntarily hear the next mix-track in your head?

Subject: Dead Man Telling Tales Aside from the large doses of IT drenching this performance of some of our favorite standards for a most special time, the beauty of this show is in the adventurousness of the segues--dealing from a couple different decks like ace sharks.

These Bermuda Triangulations are nothing less than perfectly executed with a great big smile from the boys. This dexterity is not to be missed. The Friend > China Cat? Wherefrom came that? China Cat > The Eleven transition revisitation is a whole new level from '68. Pigpen's Alligator with scratcher sounds just like primal '68--the best period for it. Somethin's on here. And the Rhythm Devils' bol conclusion? Wow! Then just listen to the Great Gar's enthusiasm on the lyrical front. Pure joy.

And where do we go? A Cautionary Feedback loop apropos the off-shore locale. Not a 5 due to it being incomplete (though not a harsh cut). The Goodnight is an elated soft landing after a perfectly weird scene inside the goldmine. The sound is a very positive 4. It's all there and very fresh. Don't miss this one. - January 31, 2005Dead Man Telling Tales
