    Discs 2 & 3

    Both 2nd sets are red hot. The Dane County set starts with an Estimated/Eyes. Not withstanding a very sloppy transition, this combo is played well, and with great energy.
    Now what can you say about a Playing/Wheel/Playing sandwich. Delicious!!
    I love how Playing starts falling apart around 17:39, but slowly & gently, comes back to life.
    Keith sounds fantastic throughout all 3 discs, but shines particularly on this 2nd set.
    The Uni-Dome 2nd set begins with a very strong Samson, but it’s the Scarlet/Fire that really shines. Beautiful transition, and no vocals on Fire until about 5:10. This is one of those legendary 30 minute Scarlet/Fires.
    Truckin’ starts a little slow, but has a top shelf jam into the Drums section. The Other One is next, and Bobby really shines here. Then into Wharf Rat(fantastic solo transition from Jerry here), Jerry’s vocals on this are strong and heartfelt. What could follow but a very tidy transition into Around & Around?? Great stuff!!

    So hard to pick a fave 2nd set here, but if I had to, I’d go with the Dane County(by a nose).
    But really, what hits home to me, and I obviously haven’t played this for years, is that for a guy who used to only like ‘68-‘72 stuff, graduated up to ‘73-‘74, and finally to ‘76-‘77, this is real red hot stuff. The 30 Trips box helped, and then going back and buying all of the DP’s & Road Trips that I had passed on the first time around.
    Great suggestion Bolo, or should I say Dave??

    Conclusion?? This Dead fan can love a show from any year, as long as it’s HOT!! Keep ‘em coming!!

    Homework

    I LOVE a good homework assignment. I have quite a few comments on disc 1 right off the bat.
    It would appear that they snuck in 2 songs from the Milwaukee show that happened in between Dane County & Uni-Dome(It’s All Over Now-set 1, and Dupree’s-set 2). Curious.
    Out of 12 songs only 3 sets of 3 are back to back from same set(Bertha/G.Lovin’, LL Rain/BE Women, and Passenger/Deal.
    Fantastic Bertha w/great transition into GL
    Has there ever been a bad version of CR& Snow??(Answer—NO)
    Maybe a top 3(for me) Minglewood
    TLEO is sweet.
    LL Rain/BE Woman super mellow, great playing by all
    TMNS-Again, not too many bad versions, and this one is delicious.

    I’ll get back to you after discs 2 & 3.

    When I heard Disraeli Gears…

    When I heard Disraeli Gears in 1968 it changed my life, and then in 1970 I heard Live/Dead ...
    So now I am loving the Cream Goodbye Tour 1968, but still waiting for my copy of June 1976 and Dave's Picks 33!
