This week's Deadpod features a fine show from June 24, 1976 at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby PA, near Philadelphia.
This spring '76 tour features mail order tickets for the first time, and rejuvenated vocals from Bob and Donna, who seem to have benefited from the time off. This particular show was broadcast on FM but this is a soundboard copy and I think it sounds great. This one also has a hilarious opening by Bob and Phil - worth keeping the rather longish tuning in place ;)
I think you'll find that Keith is particularly fine throughout, but especially on Big River..
Listen to Jerry make that axe howl in Tennessee Jed ;) And what beats a first set Scarlet Begonias?
Hope you enjoy.
