11/18/72 houston: fantastic garcia vocals on 16-minute HE’S GONE, counterbalanced by off-night for donna jean. extended vocal outro & jam, mellow in the best way. lazily unfolding conversation, lots of bass. wall-to-wall endlessly-renewing full-tilt 26-minute PLAYING IN THE BAND. chattering bass, dizzying garcia ellipses, general shred-melt mayhem, clomping piano densities, all threaded along kreutzmann’s dancing snare, constantly resetting the swing. #deadfreaksunite #gd111872 [2/3]
