I was there It was crazy hot. The temperature topped out at 105. Water hard to come by until Kesey brought in a 10,000 gallon water truck. Music was great. New Riders opened and the the Dead played for hours. Bob Weir said the sun was so hot they had to retune their guitars after every song. An experience I'm not likely to forget. BTW, there are very good videos of the Veneta performance. I know because I have them.

Hands down your best video to date: The excitement and entanglement of your brain when you dove into the first sloppy solo of Jerry's is killer. You could have crapped on his drug fed bending to hit the right notes, but instead gave him grace and compared him to the likes of Hendrix. The Dead back then was an entirely different animal that keeps you on the edge of your seat. And you sir, get it. Then you attempt to go over it and fucking crush the tutorial. My hat is off to you.

I've been a DeadHead since 1976 and I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that 8/27/72 is in the Top 5 live Dead shows of all time. Practically every song is as good as it gets. Especially great are Bertha, Playin in the Band, Dark Star>El Paso, Birdsong and a few others. The boys were on that day even though the temperature soared to around 100 degrees I believe. This show is just dripping with sonic goodness. 1972 was probably the best year for live Grateful Dead. They were firing on all cylinders and their vast catalog of music was growing leaps and bounds. If I was turning someone on to the Dead for the first time I would definitely include this show as a launching point. It's that good... Thank you Michael, Great job as always... The Best Is Yet To Come... .

Lifelong Jerry/Phil/Bob fan who plays both bass and guitar here. The Bertha from their live double album (a.k.a. Skull and Roses), Fillmore East 4/27/71 has a better Jerry solo in terms of a storytelling melody developing from beginning to end; the Veneta is more explorative and all over the place. You can also hear that Bobby is supplying lots of the melodic movement in the verses, in between chords. And Phil is more prominent in the mix, which is important. The bass really drives this song. An important role Phil plays in the band is playing the dynamic between anchoring the emotional feel and letting it soar by his choice of when to play up the neck and when to keep in the lower registers. This song starts up the neck and rarely comes down, giving it its unique intensity. Rhythmically, it has the bounce of a playful puppy jumping all over the place. It reminds me some of the high register bass-playing in African pop styles like soukous where the bass is almost like a conga drum part. p.s. I absolutely hated the plodding dirge barbiturate tempo Bertha the band did in later years.
@tjwolfe777 ай бұрын

The China Rider on this album is amazing! Bobby starts the solo with some great licks, then Jerry fades in and blows the doors off of it

Yup, there is some cool footage of Neal Cassady driving the bus mixed in with the performance. The rider solo is beautiful.

The Dark Star from this show is worth a video. There is film of that song (and a few others from the show as it was eventually released as a concert film), and it’s the best Dark Star imo. Playing In The Band and the China>Rider from this show would also be great dives

I'm 68, so I grew up with the early Dead. We listened to Live/Dead at every house party in the early 1970's. Lovelight was the high point of every party, and I do mean high. The band changed so much by the 80's, I stopped listening for over a decade. Now I'm back.

Damn I had to check that my video playback speed wasn't bumped up to 1.25x, one of the faster Bertha's I've heard! Great video.

Check out the 7-4-1989 version, you can tell Brent focuses on A# rather than F# when the band strums the C-F part
