    I understand there is some controversy as to whether this show actually occurred and if it did, where. Allow me to cast some light on this. Monday, November 16, 1970 at the Fillmore East (Not the Anderson) was my first experience with the Grateful Dead. The show was announced less than 48 hours before show time at the late show that weekend for Zappa. It was to be the Airplane and the Dead. Already being an Airplane fan, I was psyched to hear about it, and scored a mezz ticket.

    This is an excellent show and certainly some of the best music the band performed with guest musicians sitting in. I believe that the Grateful Dead did indeed perform a Hell's Angels benefit in NYC on 11/23/70, but this is in fact a Fillmore East perfomance from 11/16 of that year. Very good sound quality and an intereting mix, particularly if you enjoy hearing Weir slashing. Lots of guest infused jamming and a realy nice Other One and UJB encore. (97 pts)
