Alright, there's no way one could quibble about the sound quality. Terrible. But underneath it is a historical account of the Dead playing "11" in "1968", pretty much the ultimate pairing of elements for their repetoire. So...: download, eq, allow for internal mental filtering (a truly marvelous and effective tool), and grok. 1 star for the sound quality, 5 for the content, overall assessment: four stars.

- ★★★★ · Listenable audio, but a great set · L. Rosley · 2009
These August shows are a high point in 1968. In addition to this 8/28/68 set, 8/21, 8/22, 8/23, and 8/24 are excellent. This one was recorded just a few days after the Two From the Vault shows (8/23-8/24), and has the same energy and creativity as all four of those shows. This is actually just a set, but a very good one. A beautiful Dark Star that disproves the idea that Jerry didn’t learn how to play guitar until the 1970’s. St.
