Feel Like A Stranger, Sugaree, The Same Thing, Brown Eyed Women, El Paso*, Tennessee Jed, The Music Never Stopped Victim Or The Crime-> Samba In The Rain, Foolish Heart-> Corinna-> Drums-> Space-> The Last Time-> That Would Be Something-> Morning Dew, E: Johnny B. Goode

Flaws:



- Introduction D1t1 has a pop(small).



- Static/Balloon? D1t04 for a half a sec.(not bad).



- Slight clipping in left channel during Drums d2t05 when the sound got so loud it pushed the master DAT over. It does not sound distorted but you can see the clips when viewing the wav file.

Subject: Dont call anyone a fool for not liking a phoned in show with no passion and Jerry being seriously hindered by health issues and a major drug problem. It is not all good as this show proves. I love the grateful dead I just do not unconditionally give every show 5 stars. If this were NKOTB than yes this would be a 5 star performance for them but tho is the Grateful Dead and this is just a lousy show, and yes i was there, and relistened to the tapes. The first set is OK but the second is among the worst of all-time. 2 Stars only because of a passable set 1. PS announcer is not just some loser local DJ but Pierre Robert an honest to goodness true Dead Head. Be careful criticizing people you do not know. Pierre is a sweetheart and a true fan of the band.

Subject: I saw 48 out of 53 This show starts off with a local loser of radio announcing the band. This was just another weak and lame show ya know the kind that garcia wished he was anywhere else but in the spectrum right then. But i must say the band LOVED PHILLY. that is all the times they played here before vince welnick joined the band, they loved us at the tower theatre,the civic center,J.F.K. with bob dylan,the electric factory with pigpen, as well as brent mydland and keith and donna but after brent passed all of the energy went with him,the majority of the shows after brent were sooo tired and boring.listen to the way jerry played are you telling me he was not bored? - August 28, 2011I saw 48 out of 53

Subject: 50th Show at the Spectrum This was the Dead's 50th show at the Spectrum. I still have the concert shirt. They unvealed the tye dye flag that night which I believe still hangs from the rafters.

While the show was a well played one as almost all Philly Spectrum shows were, I waited all night for them to break out something special rather than the run of the mill set list that they wound up playing. The JBG encore was a real let down too.

However, I won't let my disappointment from that night hinder the fact that this is still a great show and it gets the 4 stars it deserves.

Thanks to everyone involved in this site for allowing me to relive a lot of forgotten great memories. - January 15, 200850th Show at the Spectrum

Subject: third show wow Ok here we go these three shows were the last string of three in a row that were awesome. I stand to say that the Dead changed over the years and if you could make it to show then ur lucky to have experienced the magic .Whether it was 60's 70's 80's or the 90's we were their guests.I strong support Jerry through out his entire carreer.If you knock the Dead here you are a fool and not worthy of the listen. - August 14, 2007third show wow
