Love how the Grateful Dead could go from sounding like a Country and Western band to sounding like the most obscure Post Punk band all in the same show.

[@hughbarroll5758]

Glad to see Seattle 95 here. I liked it a lot when performed, and the tape made me like it even more.

[@viragomixtapes]

Melancholy Suite is what dreams are made of. Thank you for sharing LMDJ!

[@jimsherry5871]

Just went from 69 to this! Omg the Dead WERE always playing Dark Star...with some nice sounding songs in between! Lol

[@jimsherry5871]

So you know...the Dead sucked in '95...I guess they didn't 😂

[@bryanmeekins835]

I ended up going to a lot of shows in 95, and the Charlotte show with Hornsby was definitely my favorite.

What a wonderful way to spend the morning. Thanks for uploading this fantastic mix. 95 had some magic

[@veneta72]

I gotta say the drums / space 2023 dead and co are some of the best that have ever been laid down. the spaces back in the 90's had this weird, psychedelic clown / circus energy. little beeps and bops and tings and tongs and its just kind of...its not super deep. Thank you immensely for putting these together though. listening now. enjoying it. love d/s...

Is there a “Drums” episode yet?

[@user-lf9km7bo7s]

"Save Your Face" is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. It's STEAL YOUR FACE.

[@johnhilgart6709]

When nearly all Grateful Dead shows contain sub-optimal material, saving their face is a noble deed, IMO. It makes sense to ID material that will steal your face when you listen to it.

[@CallMeVlork]

Bad take, switching up something notable is the entire point of the blog
