Dead Show/podcast for 2/25/11

Again, this week we have the pleasure of listening to truly classic Grateful Dead, this time the second set from February 18th, 1971 at the Capitol Theater in Port Chester N.Y. While this second set does not contain the transcendent beauty of the jam between Wharf Rat and the Dark Star reprise, it does contain the very first 'Playin' in the Band' as well as a superbly played Saint Stephen->Not Fade Away->Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad->Not Fade Away combo that really can't be beat.. Put this together with last week's pod for one of the greatest shows in the Dead genre..

Truly a momentous show, as so many now-ubiquitous Dead tunes were unveiled for the very first time!
