  • What a beautiful version. It's nice to see it with the audio synced up with video too, as other versions of this night are out of sync. Diggin Jerry's Stratocaster too :-)

  • @tahiti5000 yea thats a beautiful guitar

  • 3:53 - 4:06 The Grateful Dead's best keyboardist... Keith Godchaux. He actually played a grand piano, nothing could replace Pig Pen but Keith just added that extra intense solo no one could ever match.

  • @DougyMac718 yea keith was awesome. too bad he got drowned out so much in his later years

  • What a treat that these European performances were captured on video. Too bad they didn't get the entire tour on 8 mm film.

  • yea that would have been grate

see all

  • you don't know the half of it..until they fill your life to the top with hope and wonder.

  • @pjac317 Man, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually agree. Billy handles this tremendous band by himself superbly. His drumming is incredible by itself, and I think that's a big part of why I like Europe 72 stuff so much. Mickey's playing definitely brought something to the table, but I feel sometimes his playing was sort of distracting and brought the drums too much into the foreground.

  • Never realized it was Phil supplying the high harmony on this track on the released version. Forgot he could carry a tune back in the day. Jerry doesn't trade verses in this video although he does on the overdub they released.

  • My favorite tour. I've never heard anything from this tour that I didn't like.

  • The first time I heard this song it was on vinyl for this tour with HUGE really nice headphones, it was one of the most intense experiences, no joke.

  • don't like when Jerry bows out and decides not to sing his few lines - for whatever reason.

  • Thank God for ANYONE who ever pointed a camera at the Grateful Dead between 1970 and 1981, and saved the film or video. We just didn't know what we had while we had it.

  • Thanks for this treasure trove! Hadn't stumbled into it till now. Marvelous music! Sigh ...

  • Just wonderful  :^)

  • So much better without that Hart guy .
