Two things stand out about this show: that's it's a top show, even from one of the top-five-best-years; and that it was discussed locally for over a decade. Red Rocks became a legendary venue for the Dead, and they played it 20 times (two more were moved for weather). Inevitably you'd be there bitd talking with some dudes about previous Red Rocks shows, and which were great tapes, when some older dude would lament that you hadn't been at Boulder '72.

( ) ( ) ( ############_"Smokin'_GRATEFULD DEAD Show" 5 Star performance (after the first 8 tracks) 5 Star recording --(after the first 8 tracks) 5 Star mix - - - - (after the first 8 tracks) The first 8 tracks are audience quality recordings and so is the very last track. You don't have to download them, I didn't. I recommend using your EQ to dial in the sound on practically all the GRATEFUL DEAD shows on the IA, this one included. PLAYING IN THE BAND & CASEY JONES are soundboard quality.
- ★★★★★ · What a concert! · mlefree · 2004
I'm so happy that I found this download! It may not be the cleanest recording ever, but it was my best Dead concert--no, any concert--ever! It was a typical Boulder late summer afternoon, which if you know the area, brought with it the typical front-range late afternoon thundershowers. The recordings reveal some of the on-stage problems these thundershowers caused, what with remarks about using the frisbees for rain hats and taking time to dry out their piano.
