This impeccable stream confirms that for me. After all these years and countless (mostly West coast) shows, I still believe that to be true. I did know one thing though, the "Scarlet/Fire" was the most beautiful performance of a Dead tune I would ever witness. Amazingly, I had to miss the next nights show in Buffalo as we were heading back to Long Island (another incredible performance that I only got to enjoy on tape/CD). That winter was the blizzard of '77 in Buffalo and caused me to transfer to Arizona State the following fall. Obviously, at the time we had no idea of the historical significance of this performance in GD lore, but I do remember thinking this was the best Dead show I had ever witnessed (first 3/73 at the Nassau Coliseum) when we exited the show in the wee hours to a fresh blanket of snow from a freak spring storm. I am blessed to have attended this amazing show. Note: It streams one song at a time, so use the arrows to skip songs. May '77 is considered one of their best periods (along with 1969, 1972, 1974, etc.). This is often considered the best show in Dead history.
