Twenty-Two

We pay a visit to 1978 today, when the Dead played the St. Paul Civic Center.
This is, at times, a very good audience recording. Some really ripping jams, too. 😮

I remember once referring to 1978 as a ripening of 1977, and being told to "stop smokeing drugs."

One of the rare (relatively speaking) performances of the Warren Zevon hit "Werewolves of London" here, and it's worth noting how rare it was for the group to cover a contemporary...and what a tune to choose!

Have a good one.
