Berkeley Community Theatre Berkeley, CA

Fresh off their legendary Europe '72 Tour, the Dead kick off one of their best eras that would last till late '74. This era is famous for its cosmic jazz improvisations, but in this episode of Grateful Moments I'm featuring more earthbound songs. Even though they're more straight forward, traditional song structures, don't be tricked by their simplicity! These songs have an almost mythic quality to them, their lyrics an archetype of tragedy and love.
