This week’s Deadpod takes us back to Pasadena, California, and the Rose Palace on May 10, 1969. This is a fierce, high-energy slice of early Dead, complete with a few rough edges from the road. “Hard To Handle” and “Morning Dew” both run into technical trouble, with the band’s frustration coming through loud and clear, but the real centerpiece here is the long psychedelic run from “Dark Star” into “Saint Stephen,” “The Eleven,” and a nearly half-hour “Turn On Your Love Light.”
It’s primal Dead, unpredictable and powerful, with all the danger and electricity of 1969 still crackling through the tape.
