A perfect way to see in the lovely month of June, this week's second set from the Baltimore Civic Arena, May 26th, 1977, is as fine a set of Grateful Dead music as one could hope to hear. Perhaps not an alltime 'classic' but certainly a wonderful companion to any worth while activity you could hope to accomplish in this wonderful season. This set features a lovely 'High Time' - one of my favorites, as well as a Terrapin->Estimated->Eyes combo that is played wonderfully. Not Fade Away is often taken for granted..I recommend you listen to this one, and harken back, if you were so lucky to the times you were able to watch them standing in those circles of light serenading us with this wonderful rocker... The Uncle John's Band encore is of course, just exactly perfect.
I trust you use this good music as a salve for your heart.. it does mine good.

Thank you kindly for your support, I can't tell you how much it means to me that you keep the Deadpod rolling..
Can't think of a better High Time. Excellent Spring '77 show.
ReplyDelete40 years or so since I first heard that Not Fade Away to Goin down the Road Transition - and still the same thrill. Merci Beaucoup Prof.
ReplyDeleteA+ set! Loved the Not Fade Away> GDTRFB>Around and Around and that Big River was red hot!
ReplyDeleteThis show is very underrated in terms of May 77.
