There's something about this show.
'78 was a happening year for the Dead.
4/15/78 captures that with a real fluid clarity.
This show has some of the most cohesive musicianship. Friend of the Devil is such a sweet rip.
There was something real breathing and pat about the harmonies man. Donna is giving.
Takes it to the next level.
Jerry's delivery really lifts this into the stratosphere.
Everyone was together and buzzing.
What a rush man.
An incredible Picks.
The Brown Eyed Women solo kicks. It's up there next to Dane County, Cornell, Buffalo...
Let it Grow and Deal keep that fire burning.
Deal is a slick, straight thunder of a cut.
Playing in the Band is like a palpable kaleidoscope of that genre bending spirit that epitomises the Dead, and as far as that experience goes, this '78 thunderbolt really delivers.
