Subject: Forty years done come and gone my oh my! This is a typical show of the period...which means totally fucking awesome! The boys were really on a roll in Summer '74. Some of my all time favorites come from this period. Love the unique jazzy jams and that Wall of Sound mix.

This one has showcase versions of Playin' and Scarlet, some of the finest versions of these tunes come from this period.

The real reason to pick this show over others with similar setlists, is the unique one-time-only transition between Spanish Jam and Eyes. Bobby playing loose and lively with Keith pounding away on the Fender Rhoads electric piano, I love that funky sound he gets! This also happens to be Keiths birthday and he definatelty appears to be enjoying himself. Billy snapping away on the snare and Jerry just nailing it to the wall as he was so apt to do in the mid-70s. A transcendent moment that deserves it's place in the Hallowed Hall of Immortal Grateful Dead Jams.



The only reason this show doesn't get five stars is due to such stiff competition during the 72-74 era. - July 19, 2014Forty years done come and gone my oh my!

Subject: Keith Unlike the poster before I think Keiths playing starts out fairly well ('72-'74) after that he tends to be too simplistic (check out 5/7/77 for an example of him just kinda hitting very easy keys) IMO can't beat Pigpen. But This show is AWESOME! My favorite dead years are 76 and 77, but this may make me change my mind the jam in Playing is super trippy and definitely has me on another planet. Jerr kills every jam in this and Phil is also having a solid night. one negative, I wish they jammed more to jack straw - July 19, 2012Keith

Subject: Keiths Rhodes 74' is one of my favorite years for the dead. I actually researched what years Keith used the Fender Rhodes and its mostly heard in 74'. He's obviously monster on the piano with things like Tennessee Jed and Deal but I love his style of rhodes playing on Scarlet and China Cat. He's a very colorful player, perfect for the Dead. - October 1, 2011Keiths Rhodes

Subject: classic performace you have to love the zeal of the first reviewer...though this is quite a popular show from '74, i agree that the WRS>Spanish Jam>Eyes is one of the very best jams of the year.



but don't overlook the Deal, Scarlet, He's Gone, U.S. Blues, or Playing in the Band..this show is great from beginning to end! - February 11, 2011classic performace

Subject: eyes the jams are great and Phil's bass tone is just how I like it, nice and thick. The way they drop into Eyes is perfect and smooth, nice Phil solo there in Eyes too.... - April 26, 2010eyes
