This week I'm going to bring you the entire second set from this legendary show that took place on December 6th, 1973 in Cleveland Ohio. My first show, I had no idea what I was witnessing - but of course I'm sure it permanently altered my DNA :) This second set features one of the greatest versions of 'Here Come Sunshine' and of course, a legendary Dark Star. The length of this Deadpod is substantially longer than usual, but the music is so substantial that I know its well worth the investment ...

set 2:
Ramble On Rose

Thank you for your support, my friends..
Cant wait to crank it up. May we never be held within Maxxell 90's time limits again.
ReplyDeleteThank you again.
Professor - It's gotta be more than coincidence this was your first show. An absolutely awesome show that must have changed your musical life, and continues to today as you share the music almost 40 years later! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGreat show prof! Gotta love this one cause I'm from Cleveland
ReplyDeleteI don't think you can ever be thanked enough for sharing a show like this. The Here Comes Sunshine has absolutely made my day!
ReplyDeleteThank you my friend! Thank you!
This show has the sickest Ramble on Rose I've ever heard. Thank you Professor!
ReplyDeleteI agree that the December 1973 shows were "apex material". I was fortunate to have my DNA altered four nights earlier in Boston (12/2/73) and the positive effects are still playing out today. Thanks for sharing this show from that great run!
ReplyDeleteI had been getting in to a little bit of a rutt with the Dead. This show has really shaken me up! I am sooo blown away!
ReplyDeleteKeep them coming Jonh!
Excellent show. Not a bluesy enough Me and My Uncle, but other than that a divine set.
ReplyDeletekeep up the good work bro!

ReplyDeleteAny idea where I can grab a copy of the art that accompanies the 2/5/10 show?
I picked that drawing up here:

How can I get a copy of this show?
ReplyDeleteSuch a great set, through and through...to highlight this song or that one is an injustice to the rest. Having said that...a 47-minute Dark Star??? Wow!!! Your first show was a keeper, Professor!
