Subject: Peak Althea! Fantastic show from start to finish. I'm listening to the whole Fall 1982 East Coast tour and while this show has kind of a vanilla set list, the playing is as good as any other. The two MSG shows get lots of love - I saw both - but I think the Cap Center, Portland and Boston shows preceding them and this one immediately following are very bit as good. i usually stick to boards and it is widely acknowledged that Phil is way too low in the mix during this era. This show has about as much Phil as any I've heard from the run, not surprising Charlie Miller could make that happen. Excellent Brent representation, too. I'm a nut for the slow building Jerry/Hunter tunes - Sugaree, Althea, Loser - and this Althea is absolute five stars. Jerry still had his vocals and of course he never lost his command of the strings. Same with the Baby Blue encore - all from this tour sparkle with that sense of escape from impending calamity, which Jerry could probably relate to. Finally, in honor and memory of Chuck Berry, you've got Round and Round into Johnny B. Goode. If you like the Dead from this era, don't overlook this show - and this version!! - March 19, 2017Peak Althea!

Subject: Right outta the gate!! Right from the start w/ Alabama Getaway and Brent layin' down the B3 it's clear it's goin' be a smoker of a show! Early 80's always seem pretty high in energy to me. On that note, fall '83 JGB is unreal too. Best TLEO Boston '83! Check it out on YouTube, lots of really good JGB. (~);} - September 24, 2016Right outta the gate!!

Subject: bread crumb For those who criticize Bob's slide (which was admittedly awful at first, but by late '82 was pretty good) listen to this Althea and tell me it isn't enhanced greatly by the slide play. - March 1, 2016bread crumb

Subject: My first show The bus come by and got on, that's when it all began... this was my first show. I remember the energy and dancing in the halls. I saw my shaman through some clean brown windowpane. I was hooked. Going back and listening now, I too realize how great it, and the energy, really was. Entire second set flowed. I remember that even the concession people were dancing by the time we got to Johnny B. Goode. - May 6, 2013My first show
