This week, set 2 of a wonderful recording of a rockin' show from the Summer of 1980 - 6/20/80 from
Anchorage Alaska. This is really a wonderful classic set of Grateful Dead music for the period, and this second set starts out with a fabulous Alabama Getaway into Greatest Story Every Told. The crowd knows they're in for a treat here as the boys rock this one out! Ship of Fools follows and then a wonderful version of Estimated Prophet - the band really lights this one up. This flows not surprisingly into 'The Other One' but the drums and space that follows is quite interesting and lead into a really funky Brent intro into a sweet 'Not Fade Away' - no throwaway set closer here. Black Peter follows , then the boys step on the pedal again to end the set with a great 'Around and Around' into 'Johnny B. Goode'. They return with a 'Don't Ease' me encore to say goodnight to their Alaskan guests..

Professor, I LOVED this show. Great sounding recording, and the boys were playing and singing well and with good energy. Too bad that it was Alaska's only show, but they got a good one!
