It amazes me the band can just rip one off after scolding the crowd for being uptight. These guys just loved to play for sure, simply AMAZING show. 10 full on stars for this one here. run 3 - October 23, 20182nd threw ump teen

Subject: Alligator Warning If you listen carefully, with about :42 seconds left in The Other One, right before the final verses, you can hear someone (Jerry?) shout "Alligator."

Subject: so you know The time allotted for Caution includes the Alligator jam which is excellent, as is the Caution itself.

1/25, 1/26 and 2/4 are amazing predecessors of the Fillmore shows. - August 19, 2013so you know

Subject: Joy from Nebraska A great show and a new discovery for me!I really didn't mind the sound quality - I've heard a lot worse for sure.



Strong show all around but the excellent Morning Dew and Eleven->Death Don't stand out for me. After listening to a string of '68 shows, it's amazing to hear how far Dark Star had come in a year and this rendition is excellent with some fascinating passages.



Thanks for posting! - February 4, 2011Joy from Nebraska

Subject: Please don't pass by this winter HEAT! I would not call this soundboard degraded either. The muddiness is there, but certainly this is not much worse than a number of these Jan./Feb. shows, so you should not pass this up if you're a nut about early '69 like me. More importantly, almost all of these shows are absolute face-stealers, this being no exception.



The first set is very nice, and things get going pretty quickly with a raunchy GMLSG. The Dark Star>St. Steven>Eleven, though, is where things get serious. The DS is on the short side, but they really did pack a lot into these versions; just listen to Garcia’s wonderful use of dynamics here as the jam flows effortlessly between the 1st and 2nd verses. The Eleven is no slouch either, containing some hot jamming throughout.



They take things up a notch in the second set, with an exciting version of the Other One that features an extended intro jam for this time period. While not quite as riveting or cohesive as the performance on Feb. 7th, this one does reach some amazing peaks. Instead of going into the cryptical reprise, they decide to do an unusual segue right into Alligator. Despite Bobby calling out the change, there is a bit of a miscue by Garcia at the start. But they more than make up for it with an Alligator>Caution jam that is intensely beautiful. For those who suggest that Garcia was still not a consummate musician, check out the gorgeous work he does leading into Caution, it may just blow your mind.



Caution does sort of get 'stuck' at the start, but things lock back together quickly with yet another great jam session. Feedback is, well, there’s just nothing like it. Careful how many you drop around this one…



If you’re mojo’s not going by the end of this show, lay off the tranquilizers dude! - November 12, 2010Please don't pass by this winter HEAT!

Subject: ...~3.5 stars. yes, this is well worth your time.

Respectfully, i would not call this SBD "degraded".

A general muddiness, and a slight hiss are present, most likely owing to the cass. generation in the lineage.

Though overall to my ear the mix is even w/ all parts accounted for, including the organ down deep and in the back. Other errors besides the missing "bid you goodnight", include the end of "death don't" being cut.



If you are into this era of the dead, i would recommend not skipping over this show so quickly,

and give this recording a good listen before you dismiss it based on the quality of the sound.



on my ten point scale

(relative to the rest of the era) i give this a 7.

(~3.0 for quality, ~4.0 for performance)



PS. -the "schoolgirl" is sssssSMokin'! - October 3, 2005...~3.5 stars.
