Cornell's evil twin! 😜

Actually, there are a fair amount of heads that prefer this night. Both have their moments, but not sure I have a preference. My favorite 1977 shows are 05/19 and 09/03, which I had on cassette & both of which became Dicks Picks.

This was a RSD release. The 05/07 Boston show will be released RSD 2023.

Blues For Allah
Grateful Dead Records (1975)

This is probably my favorite studio album. Perhaps the closest they came to capturing their live sound in the studio. Great songs, great instrumentals, lots of great weirdness, all things I love about this band.

I only saw them play Crazy Fingers once and I only saw Franklin's w/o Help once.
