Agreed. That was a great performance.
As was Heart when I saw them live in the late 70s. I remember them closing out with Zep's "Rock & Roll" that was fantastic.
What music are you diggin'?

I remember buying the first "Heart" album and how much Ann and Nancy looked alike on the cover. It was very intriguing....alas those were the days.....a great era for music.....
Grateful Dead. Noting twenty years since Jerry Garcias' death on August 9th, 1995.
Link to a post on The Strip with two tunes from their gig in Tuscaloosa in May of 1977; so clean they must be from the board. "Jack A Rpe" and "Terrapin Station"

I saw them in Tampa in April of 1995 - little did I know it would only be a few months until Garcia died...
The Black Crowes opened - they were good, as usual.
I love a horn section......good old Chicago......doesn't get much better than this.
That part at 2:50 gives me goosebumps!!!

i think that t-town 77 show was included in a spring 77 box set that was released this past year. it was a good one
i saw them one last time when they came through atlanta in spring 95 on the last night of the 4 night stand. my only "miracle ticket". friend of mine who worked at cnn called me up the morning of the show and said "you really like the dead don't you?" then she said, "meet me at the will call desk in 2 hrs" turns out she had somehow gotten some company tix and we had two great seats and backstage passes. unfortunately the show was less than stellar as garcia was a lifeless blob on stage, but it was still a good time and the [otherwise pretty weak] set list had a few songs i hadn't heard live.
april 5th 1995 my last show at the BJCC, I still have the shirt I bought but it so full of holes I can wear it anymore
Went to a show in Highschool where a group of Highschool kids from Walton High in Marietta was playing. Mr Crowes Garden was what they called themselves. They were so, so bad that we made fun of them for the next year at least. My best friend and I would joke about any band who we would go to "who's the opening band going to be Mr Crowes Garden?" That sort of thing. Couple years later I catch this band on MTV playing an Odis Redding Cover, Mr Crowes Garden became the Black Crowes, never did learn to appreciate them
Funny, my wife won't let me wear it anymore. It is shredded but i'll never toss it. May frame it soon

I still have a t-shirt from working in the crew of the 1977 Tuscaloosa gig. It's a Stealie logo on a beige shirt, with "University of Alabama May 17,1977" under the logo. "Stage Crew" lettering across the back of the shirt. Wore it that once, then washed and framed it.
The date was originally set for April 23, but the whole southern swing was reset by the Dead. Not having the Univ in session was a non-positive for attendance.
