Subject: - Rating this one because I can't review the Miller version. Easily one of my favorite Dead shows of all time! The first set is a touch sloppy but the jams are already showing you what's to come. Out of this world 2nd set. Unbelievable Playin' in the Band. - November 4, 2014

Subject: Raw smokin tour This fall tour was raw rip roaring Grateful Dead. Freaky looking Jerry with his long hair and the rest of the boys just giving it there all. that said this is just one of outstanding nights. Love the Playing in the Band on this tour. In and out of it in so many ways. out of space into space out of Wharf Rat into China doll and completed the next night in Maine. Can't ask for better then that. - April 30, 2014Raw smokin tour

slipnut - I saw Creek play somewhere after one of those Hartford shows but it might have been '83, I think, I hope I would remember if the Dead showed up! I remember they did a cover of Estimated Prophet that night - April 5, 2013the monster is outa the box!

Subject: after show jam at the Agora? Anyone recall Max Creek opening? Apparently, the GD went over to the Agora after the show and jammed with Max Creek. Did anyone here witness that? - March 1, 2013after show jam at the Agora?

Subject: Scarlet->Fire->Playin.... In fairness to the person you're complaining about, Fugawee cited the Scarlet->Fire-Playing being 40 min (close to it, too), not just the Scarlet->Fire. Just look at the post and it tells you!



Solid show through and through. Attended this one and remember it a lot for the smokin' Sugar Mags but the whole second set, while song selection is unspectacular/typical for the era, is really nicely played with some fierce licks from Garcia in the Scarlet->Fire. - August 20, 2010Scarlet->Fire->Playin....

Subject: gr 29:09 minutes not 40 for Scarlet/Fire..its amazing how people constantly exaggerating song lengths on her..just look on the player and it tells you actual time! that aside, a great show, audio/performance at least 4 - May 17, 2010gr

Subject: Revolutionary Show...Let Me Explain... I was there, Weir was deafening in his distortion and raunch. I never heard him play like this before, posessed would be the appropriate term. The Sugaree is for the ages, one of a kind; not sweet, but, may i use the term...sick! Bird song takes it to another level. The second set blazes too. This was one of my top 5 of 43 shows. It was an incredible show, afterwards everyone was talking about how they hadn't seen a show that sounded like this one before. .

Peace,

Frosty I have major hearing problems. It’s called tinnitus and for those of you who don’t know it is a constant ringing in your ears. Therefore, it is hard for me to find audience shows that are of good enough quality for me to listen to without doing further damage to my hearing by having to turn up the volume past 5 to even tell what song is being played!! I am not saying anything about these shows except that as a person with major hearing lose, these are some of the shows that I have on my I-Pod. Of course some are better than others. However, I am not giving any of these shows a review. I can always find something good in every show…...as long as I can hear it!!!! Here is my list for today, 9/20/08:7.6.84, 10.15.84, 6.19.91,7.18.89, 6.21.84, 9.6.85,10.12.84, 10.12.83, 11.1.85,8.24.85, 7.31.82, 6.25.92,8.5.89, 10.31.83, 6.26.92,10.8.84, 12.5.81, 8.30.85,11.5.85, 6.26.84, 8.3.82,6.8.80, 4.3.84, 8.10.82,3.14.81, 12.26.80, 4.15.83,4.18.82, 10.31.91, 9.2.85,10.14.83, 4.2.90, 4.30.90,10.14.84,Please let me know if you have any show suggestions that compare to these in quality of sound.

Subject: an overlooked diamond in the transitive nightfall this evening demonstrates the boy's "hard at work"

Jerry's voice is a little amphibian but don't let that stop you from taking in every last note of this "jammer".

I recorded this night with a technic's SV 100 digital audio processer on video tape masters FOB with unknown mic's.I came home from the tour with complete uncut masters including the october 11 and 12th from Augusta shows.

I am very sorry to report that the ravages of time have caused dropouts all over the masters so only the audio cassettes survive today.

(this show,the first night of hartford,both Augusta's and Portland ME all are worthless)

however, thanks to archive I can again pick up and listen to this baby over and over.

enjoy,this one with hawaiian indica nugs for "full color" sound effects and profound mind movement

Subject: Space ---> The Wheel I've owned this tape (yes, there was a time when Deadheads had walls filled with cassette tapes) for years. What stands out most --- even with a 40-minute Scarlet-Fire-Playin' --- is the way JG leads the band from Space into The Wheel. It is virtuosic! - November 6, 2006Space ---> The Wheel
