- ★★★★★ · My favorite show. · DeadHead5877 · 2005
I got this show a while ago, and it continues to amaze every time I play it. I find myself just playing the first disc over and over and over. Pigpen is in such fine form this night, absolutely on fire during the Rub and Lovelight. Friend of the Devil is great, even if Jerry does flub the lyrics a little the first go 'round (but hey, he's Jerry, so it's all good). Candyman is oh-so-sweet when played acoustic and this night is one of my favorites.

- ★★★★★ · Great Show of Course, BUT Get It For NRPS! · cugel · 2010
People throw 5 star ratings around far too freely, and that leaves no room to properly rate the REAL 5 star shows -- those extraordinary nights that people talk about years afterward and say "I was there, best concert I ever saw." This is that kind of show. There are a few moments like that in 1970. And all too few after 1980. We ought to be able to give this one 7 or 8 stars.

I used to get most of my Dead Tapes by taping them off of WBAI in NYC, and I got this one back in 96 by that method. It was awesome then, and it is even better now. That tape only had the late show, and no NRPS. This tape was one of the jewels of my collection (along with 5/24/69, 5/11/72 and 6/18/74) and I used to give copies of it as gifts for my friends BDs and at Christmas. And now I can again.
