When your 17yr old daughter says this date is her favorite version of "Me and Bobby McGee"...you understand that you have raised your kids correctly!!! :)
Agreed 🌹
YeaH OK
Yes JOB WELL DONE!✌🥳
Damn.. that almost makes me want kids.. good on you for instilling such brilliance in our youths
I posted some of these, and I put, "the dead shall rise first!"
Saw my first Dead show in 74 ( 14 years old LSD included )
Still dancing
Thanks Jerry !!!
Might've wrote this before but we went to this show. My 2nd one. Took the Greyhound bus down from NYC
Love when they do US Blues with the alternate lyrics! Great show
its wave that flag, which later became US Blues
Jerry's handprint is forever embedded, in all of our hearts.
🎶 🖖🎶 deeply touching our souls, like quicksand. Thank you, Jerry. You taught and saved so many of us. Sweet Special kisses.
Lol!!!
RIP dear Jerry...you left millions of us deeply sad. and missing you..now many of us are in our 60's, 70's and more..but still miss you and love you...
Real sweet... and yes, we do. But remember, God is love, and as the hippie carpenter said, "God is not a God of the dead but of the living." Except, of course, the Grateful Dead.
How lucky and blessed to have Jerry and the Dead alive and playing during our lifetime... saw him over 500 times in the Dead and Garcia Band.. he was truly one of a kind. Love listening to these fabulous recordings 💥🔥🎸🇺🇸
And he carries on
Your love also carries on
Word, Ellen!!! Word!
I wish more of the fabled and legendary 'Bettyboards' would surface! The best recordings of live GD ever!
I love these shows for many reasons,which I will list.
The band sounds so tight and happy, it hasn't become a chore yet.
Betty boards are the complete best, we love and thank all the legions of tapers but come now and let us reason together ❤ .
Lastly I never cease to feel like I am there, sometimes I even dance 💃. Thank you so much for your continuous love and kindness. In uploading these shows for Deadhead's of all eras and locations to join in joy of this band that has BLESSED our souls.
I was at these shows with my brother and my pregnant wife, it was great as usual!
You really summed it up and thank you for the positive feedback, we need more these days. I still dance as well, who cares, if people think its strange it's too bad for them because they don't get it, maybe someday though, if we continue to spread the light.
I rock out at work, air guitar, drums , dancing. 45 year old mechanic. Pretty certain that my co-workers think I’m nuts. Hahaha.
Hard to have a bad day when the music plays, it just naturally improves everything.
So very well said, and I must say, I agree with you wholeheartedly! ⚡⚡💥🌬💨💨🕊🎈🍄🌍✌
I'm still walkin, so I'm sure that I can dance 💃.
This is like two shows worth of songs in the 80s and 90s! And a Betty board to boot! Thanks noguins! 😀
73-76 boards are nuts. You can hear everything. It's like the band's in the room with you. This is so great. Have always dug the up-tempo They Love Each Other.
Think so?
The piano is a little higher in the mix than I like. Good show though.
Same. Every time I see TLEO in a set list, I hope it's the up-tempo version
@@hippiejohn334 Dont think Betty was here yet! JMO! But Bear and Kid were!
@@porterhouse7260 Betty was creating her own mix for the band to review after the show at least back to 72. Other people such as Bear and Kid did venue sound.
Phil is dropping em hard! Donna sounds great, really nice on The Race is On. Keith and Jerry at the peak of their powers are Billy left alone & driving them through the best 2-3yr period! Just awesome
You win. A nice comment about Donna.
Generally guys bitch when the soundman has mixed her hotter than the lead vox &/or when the guys are off.
Try singing harmony when somebody right below you is singing flat. There are NO correct notes. I know, let's turn her UP.
@@Lea99Jones ✌🏽
@@Lea99Jones 2nd time I'd heard her referenced as flat.. regardless, I'll take her enduring effort as part of the greatest Dead years, gladly, even with her.. so many things in our lives are frustrating enough. Let's leave her alone already.
@@Karmakatt6 He's saying that Donna is trying to harmonize with the boys who are singing flat.
My first Grateful Dead concert. It was a high school field trip and it set me off on many more concerts and years of trading tapes.
My field trips were to museums. Wtf.
@@claydavis2095 I had an English teacher who taught poetry through the lyrics of popular music. We went to several concerts as field trips: Frank Zappa & the Mothers, the Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan and the Band, Jackson Browne and Joni Mitchell.
Robert hunter Def a good story teller. You had an awesome teacher. If he is alive you should by him a beer.
@@claydavis2095 Unfortunately, the teacher died about three years ago. But his former students kept in touch and always let him know what they thought of him.
Dude !!! Hell of Field Trip !!! 🙌🙌 Goes to show , you just never know !!! ✌💙😂 Too you and yours !!!
God bless the Grateful Dead... and God bless the Betty boards.
I believe this is actually an owsley board my friend. Betty didn’t come until after wall of sound. I believe
Just an awesome upload! Thank you. Make America Grateful Again!.
This has to be one of my fav dead shows ive found on YT so far. Sound quality and balance is near perfect(i would bring Phil up just a little bit). And their playing is simply superb!
Betty doesn't disappoint! '73 my favorite Dead Year. 80 for JGB. ✌🏽
It Does my friend!!! Have to be..........
Phil’s bass is actually a bit louder than usual here; if anything I’d dial it down slightly; Weir’s rhythm guitar should be a little louder.

Thanks for NOT including all the time stamps. Don't start when you know the shrooms are going to kick in sooner or later.
Wow. Sound is just amazing. I now know what I’m doing the next couple hours. Thank you! Very Grateful. 💃🏽🕺🏽
Betty! Wonder if she had any idea just how important she & a few others would end up being. What a gift to those not around at all or only caught the tail end, & everyone else. But imagine if the only way to enjoy the Dead was buying officially released ...stuff. Thx to tapers. Still love a good AUD! The amount & variety of recordings is incredible.
Is this the real Jerry Garcia?@@JerryGarciaPOBox
Yes blasting even on my cheap lil JBL clip
Whenever the Dead started the show with Bertha you just knew it was going to be a good night!
Especially when Bill isn't playing his drum part in halftime
loooove a good bertha opener!
@@djtigerstripes yeah man I totally agree the faster versions of Bertha (rhythm wise) are much more enjoyable in my opinion
@@jesseywallerdiemont9911 Agreed. They completely wrecked it starting sometime in 74 by changing it to a shuffle.
@@jesseywallerdiemont9911 Second that.
One find gift that keeps flashing back 🙏🏻🙏🏻 🔥💃🏼🕺
The gift that Keeps on giving, just like Herpes. 👋
Thank you so much for sending this bit of magic my way!❤️🌻💐🐶🎈🎶🤸🧸🎵🌀👍🌟🙋🌞✨🔥🎉🌹☄️🌏🪐🥁🎤🎷🎹🎸🪕🪘

@@rosebud1958 right back at you !!!
Very good recording. Agree 1973 was a great year for the Grateful Dead. Love ‘73 and ‘74 shows. Then on to ‘77. Yessiree!!
I saw 4 73 shows and many in 77 Spring Fall and 78 on there is nothing like a Grateful Dead concert! Thanks man!
I was there! We always waited for the great mirrored dancehall ball to come on. Was magical!
note to self: never tear the jukebox down
Wonderful Set List. Great Sounds, The Best I ever Heard.
THE SPECTRUM でのShow は、Total で53回。1973~74のSet List は、最高だ!このShow では演奏されていないが、この時期のLoose Lucy ▪Eyes がたまらなく好きだ!1996年にGRATEFUL DEAD ▪JERRY GARCIA BAND の音楽に出逢い、今まで幸福と喜びの人生を味わってきた。この場を借りてJERRY に感謝を述べたい。Thanks Jerry 貴方のVocal &Guitar Sound は本当に素晴らしかった!
While it's all a matter of our own personal preferences, for what it's worth, THIS show ranks among the best, if not THE best, Grateful Dead shows I've ever had the pleasure to hear. A true gem. Thanks for posting this one!
in one way only this is the best, most pure, just listen
Holy Tomatoes! Rolling set list and it's wonderful to hear Phil turned up in the mix. Thanks for the Share.
If anyone was wondering why this show was just so damn good and special. Was the first He's Gone since Pigpen died. And imo the best ever played. Listen to the Phil Bombs and Jerry's near perfect solo and the Vocal Acapellish ending.
They played it on 3/19/73 as well... not sure if that was the first, or if there was one before that... someone get the Deadbase out ;)
Man ,Bobby and Jerry and the boys are ripping and skipping through the Galaxy on this supreme recording of a magical evening a long time ago.. the songs,the vibe and tone was awesome
The encore actually blew the roof off the spectrum
Smokin' upload, brother. '73 is my favorite Dead year. Great soundboard.
I remember that during that jam, the stage was dark except for some green lights from high up at the back of the stage.
It’s definitely hard to pick a favorite when talking Dead. There are certainly bright spots from every era, but I find myself typically engaged in the single drummer 71-74 era. This is not a negative remark toward Mickey. I love me some Mickey.
Same here. If you haven't heard it, a new upload of the RFK 6 10 73 is absolutely incredible in quality. I was there and saw many many shows thereafter, but this one was the MAX as far as my experience is concerned. th-cam.com/video/JIGb3BhKePQ/w-d-xo.html This journey to the Beyond Within starts with Morning Dew. Crank your speakers and listen to the the opening D chord.
Indeed too bad that there are no videos available from '73.
@@joshevans3452 I was at RFK 6 10 73 and I can assure you the Beat Club in Germany 72 gives an unsurpassed and intimate view of what they were like in 73. vimeo.com/101359380
The grateful dead is a genre of music with only one band. What the dead are doing to us is Existence, Pure consciousness, Bliss. Thanks Jerry.Thanks Vishnu.
@@Omm3693 Jerry is his own genre. IMO… The true magic of Jerry is mostly found outside of the Dead ✌🏻
I started listening to the Dead around this time. First show I went to was in early 79, with many more to come.
Excellent recording.
Thank you.
It's just what I needed today. A big dose of Donna

This is the good ol' Grateful Dead...in transition, a little slower than a few years earlier, but still great. What a band. Thanks.
This sounds amazing! Listen to this. Like Stagger Lee commented, sounds like the bands in the room. I can hear Phil way better than most recordings on here! (Yes!!) Could use a little more Weir 🎸in my 👂, but overall great balanced sound!!! 💚⚡🎸🙏😎🌟💨💨💀🌹⚡💥🎸✌️
Hey, "Grateful"ly appreciated for sure. Later Peace
here they come nognu--- Dave just released this show and 20k copies sold out in under 24 hours. thanks very much
Great show @ The Ole Spectrum ... nice quality. I can hear each instrument and band member ...💀
Thanks Gnu!! Great show... Great sound..!! Enjoying it very much!!🙃🍺🍺🍺🍺👍💥😎🎶🔥✨
Jerry! You will always be missed there is nothing like a grateful dead show when I die put speakers by my head and play the dead for my soul to dance to the dead forever blessed be namaste george
Here come sunshine ... and some great little nuggets from the boys. Definitely making stayin' home more manageable!!! - Dead Jim 💀
God damn I love the mother fucking Grateful Dead!
Right on!!! Me too!!!
Likes attract.. truer words were never spoken ❤
Wow
Doesn’t get much better than a 1973 BettySBD
Taken quite a few years off from the Dead, but I am totaling loving me some 73, just the sound is so butter.
Gorgeous slow 70s style Stella Blue. Phil's bass lines and Jerry's clean non-drug damaged voice make the song SHINE! The beautiful harmony on blue light cheap hotel would come later with Brent.
Drug damaged? I think that was cigarettes, booze, general hard living, age and constant touring
Box of rain . Can you say anymore? It's just a.....
@@willdenham cigarettes and booze are drugs lmao
@@tjwood2511 Not in common parlance. You really think he meant 'drug damaged' as cigarettes?
@@willdenham no, I'm sure he meant the hard drugs Jerry was doing, which yeah, would also have deleterious effects on his vocal cords' durability and resonance. But even though modern marketing has made booze and cigarettes into socially acceptable drugs, they're still drugs.
love the gram parsons version of sing me back home. love his version of everything
GREAT SHOW ! ! !
Thank God for The Grateful Dead ! ! ! !
He Appreciates your appreciation.
Here Comes Sunshine is one of my 9 favorite songs everyday forever.
Also the very best Loser ever rendered.
I'm with ya.
only 9? lol
@@jacknotreallyjackstrawfrom7109 well, 99. i typoed.
and again, Weir forgets the words to his own song.. :P. Great stuff, from that magical 1 drummer era. Thanks for this.
They really were tighter, IMO, with just Billy on the kit. With Keith on piano, and before DJ got too shrill in the mix, and before the drugs had taken a toll... 1972-1974 really was peak, IMO. Taking nothing away from some great times 1975-1979 / 1989-1990, etc.
yeah great era!
If your head was where his was when he was singing that song, words probably wouldn't be able to describe what was going on either! Show some respect!
@@riograul2043 shit , i love when they forget the words hysterical
Sam but 81 is amazing man
Uptempo Philly kind of 1st set Love it!
Betty does it again! Incredible clarity and instrument separation/balance!
For some reason I always wind up back in 74 listening in awe just like it's the first time I ever heard it, but it's the 500th ~~~ It just hits different ~~~ Lightning in a bottle
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR MORE DEAD !!!!!!!
What a show!!! I was not there in 73'
I'm here now in '24!!
This really is a great one. Outlaw songs featured.
This is still my go to, just a solid show.
Coming back to say I'm back.
Growin up in Philly i seen the boys tear that ole buildin down numerous nites, who knew that was just a taste of that special summer, RFK and wat kins glen for our neighborhood heads
Yessss! Thank you thank you thank you!
This row jimmy is superb
Excellent show thank you noguisag
Great show! Thanks Gnu!!!🎵👍💥
I was there.
Me too. Greyhound bus down from Penn Station.
great picture of jerry
He was a missionary, weather in jazz, blues, country, or primal tunes, Jerry held us.
this show's golden tight.
This is great! I'm grateful! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing!!!
Cheers !
'73 best single GD year
I love the '73 stuff. Heck in a big way it was how I was introduce to the dead back in those days anyway. But get this, In the mid nineties up here in Mpls MN there was a dead cover that went by the name of the Space Heaters(kind of like the Radiators right) and I swear they really had just whole bun h of these '73 kind of licks for their feedbag. In fact it was kind of one of the realizations that lot of us heads came to about this band and that kind of wine and the reason we were all there pretty much of the same mind and really out there digging it so much. I mean it is just good stuff to go by and with such an expansive band as the dead eventually turned out to be a head usually finds that you know all the wide arks such audiophiles as these were all trying to pull in those days. Like be too stubborn to only listen to this or that song just 2 or 3 times in a whole year or it just wasn't proper to ever really just beat on it for the love of money or In song know maybe just to have something like one of them old pop songs to beat on. Whatever? But what I found and I think this old bunch of fans that spent every Tuesday night in a high roofed little old bar for about 2 years or more was that yea people actually do find they have an honest need for some of the pop song side of the whole audiophile asthethetics banter and cant and crawling creeper kind of way the pride would come out and do the pop song kind of time me and these heads were doing following around this little dead cover band around like daily communicants of the old church I tell you. Ha Ha and lol I love you but that's just all right
72-74 all the way
@@johnkeransiii1253 bro I think you took too much too fast I have no godamn clue what you're talking about
@@johnkeransiii1253 I'm in MN too. Was living Uptown Mpls during the Space Heater's tenure in local dives. Makes sense that a cover band would select the peak of the wall of sound era as their template.
Agree. Love the set lists and the jazzy sound they made. Keith was good.
My 1st show
Bravo!
Remember this one well~Great Quality~~TY
Thank you so very much.
Holy crap that was a great Bertha opener. Jerry ended it like "What's next?"
First time I saw the Dead was at the Spectrum , 4/22/77 🎶🌹⚡️
Thank you algorithm!
Sure do miss you, Jer.
Thank you much!!!
I was at this show!!
39:32
They Love Each Other
They really had something with HCS. This one the final crescendo is mostly just crunching that chord and it sounds amazing
The Dead were incapable of playing badly in Philly.
unlike the sixers.
They really enjoyed playing the northeast , Great times! !!!!;😃😃😃
Same in Chicago back in those years. I never saw a bad Dead show.
The dead played the spectrum as much as the flyers and Sixers.
ITS THE BROTHERLY LOVE WAVE THAT FLAG!!!!
True Golden Era Dead....
The Boys are SMOKIN🤠🔥
Thanks🙂
See ya friend. Love ya man. Good times
They Love Each Other tho, perfect!
I💜🌹They Love Each other💚💜💙🧡❤️💛🔥🌹🛸👽🍀🎸🎸🎸😪😪😪🙏🙏🙏🌄🔥
Box of rain! 🤠✌
And thanks
Great show
I believe Wolfman Jack introduced the band at this amazing run.
we love you donna
Another excellent Jack Straw.. among others.
It's interesting to hear their progression on Stella Blue that would eventually hit a staggering high on their stunning 10/19/73 version later that year in Oklahoma City. It's almost there in this version, but not quite.
Hot Damn!
This was a good choice when you picked this one.
betty just may be thee hottest chick that ever existed.
Certainly one of the smartest and most talented sound engineers!
Nice ass! 💕
@@jperryfan Which is pretty damn hot, in my books. :)
@@donaldhoganson2935 she loved you too
Thank god for her and her boards man. Through interviews she seems pretty cool too
