This show is sitting here in the corner with no one to dance with, so I gotta tell you folks what a grand show this is! Found among the top ten in Deadbase, this night seems to really capture the energy and anticipation that was the Grateful Dead in late 71.Of course it helps that they were in Ann Arbor, still a very radical town in 1971 (John Sinclair). But here you have, with the return of Pig, the line up and big sound that would become Europe 72.

This is one of my favorite shows being one of the most rocking and swinging I've heard from the boys. Bobby is at his funky best. His rhythm playing is outstanding. Pig is soulful, in good voice and his organ playing is up in the mix. He and Keith are locked in together and Keith plays with energetic abandon. I really love this particular period when the Dead all to briefly had two keyboard players as full-time members of the band.

Re-listening to this beauty, which I had on tape through the mid 80s to mid 90s, I felt moved to write again to express my sense of wonder and appreciate for a stellar show. I was hooked on the Dead in 85 via my carpool driver but only old enough to see my first Dead show in '87 when my parents dropped me off at the Centrum in Worcester (I was too young to drive).
