Q
Some people say 77' was the Dead's best year, some people say 72' was the Dead's best year, some people say 89' was the Dead's best year, I agree with all of them! Depending on my mood, my opinions vary . I just feel blessed that I am in love with a band that has so much live material available to listen to and discover. God bless the tapers!💯🎯✌🌻🌹
Wrong their best year was '73 😂
I kid I kid
I say 78 😝
Agreed 👋✅🌹✌️🎸⚡️
Jerry's voice is sooo much better and he remembers the words :). shit, even Donna and Bobby are singing in harmony , this was a well oiled band!
All of the above! If JERRY WAS THERE IT WAS A GOOD YEAR!!! THAT'S MY OPINION AND IM STICKING WITH IT! But seriously, I realize some years were a lot better than others, but when you love a certain musician it really gets you high to hear them play in concert. That being said, sometimes you will take what you can get & still support that person cuz "You know our love will not fadeaway"!
I had the privilege of seeing them practicing in a basement in SF in 68. What fun for a 12 year old. I used to get dropped off at Haight and Ashbury and told where my folks would meet me at a certain time. I'd come home with posters and paraphernalia. What my folks were thinking about back then is beyond me. I think I learned a few things to early. ✌🇺🇸
So... you hung with the Dead in a basement in '68? My man, tell us some stories 😀 What did you see / hear / experience?
@@WallofSound65 Well I didn't actually hang out with them. I just wondered into some random house and some pretty good music was going on in the basement. I'd done this many times before. One time when I was 11 my friends Father took us to this little place in Sacramento where they used those old overhead projectors and colored paints between two pieces of clear plastic and squeeze it into the other colors and that being the light show for a band called Jethro Tull. They were a totally new band. People liked thier music. But from what I could hear, they were on their way to becoming something. And I still listen to them. I'd seen a few different people in San Francisco in some of the houses I'd just wonder into. Joplin and Hendrix were in one place just kicking it, but every so often they'd try putting songs together. You know what, I really miss the good old days. I wish I could remember more, but there was so much going on it was hard to keep track of everything. Thanks Wall of Sound for the response and bringing back old memories. ✌
@@earlblack2914 have listened to a Jerry Jam or two from the Haight Ashbury daze and you can hear little kids talking.. one kid.. bout 12 even engages Jerry in a Q n A.. love hearing stories about back then.. ❤️⚡💙🐢❤️🔥🪶

I couldn't type with a towel over the keys, I had to be able to see the keys and glance at whatever I was copying. It's been so long since I practiced my writing skills all I can write are Large LETTERS LIKE THIS. Haven't been to Frisco in 50 years. Thanks for the correction. I should have stayed in school, but I had to get a job to pay my rent and eat. After 8-9 hours of phyical work I couldn't imagine another 3-4 hours of Jr. College.

That sounds like the right comment. You can only hope they do
May 7th, 8th, and 9th. One could survive quite a long time in the musical wilderness on just these three Dead shows.
May 77 was out of this world! Tuscaloosa AL on the 17th is a terrific sleeper show I was lucky enough to make! In true fashion of the day we decided to do Atlanta the next two days. I think I remember the 3 of us had $19 between us. 😎
@@tommathews3964 Legendary show. Super nice that you got to attend.
My favorite run of dead of all time. These 3 shows are a masterpiece
Desert island show contender for sure.
Those three plus one of my favorite all time 5/28/77 in Hartford. What a month of shows!
My first show. My first date with Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. 15 years old. What can I say? Nothing was ever the same thereafter.
Awww. Go listen again then. ❤ we still carry what they gave us 🌹 🥀
It never is, man. Once you're on the bus.....
This show was my first 45 years later I'm still going what a wonderful life it's been peace love and the grateful Dead
NICE!
Awesome! My first show was later that year (11/6/77; Broome County, NY) and still loving it too.
🙏
Dude this was your first show I will always envied you because this is the greatest show that the band put on and I toured with a 30 years
No matter what is wrong in my life what I wish I had or didn’t, I’m always grateful for the ears I was blessed to appreciate this music with. Some people hate so hard and I wish I could give them some of the happiness I achieve from listing to the dead.
This!
This show should be added to National Archives too. One of the best ever.
IWT, and it was great.
@@Bee-hf3fc I was in New Haven the show before Boston, too (5/5/77), and it was a very high quality show, also, though a little more laid back than 5/7 and 5/8... in a way that was and still is significantly enjoyable.
@@rajsuss I was to young but I think about being there. I believe you, they seemed to always be up.for the North East.
This entire week of shows… man, to have been there live!
It is clean as shit! 10 * on that! They are tight as fuck!

Hello from London - only just getting into The Dead; what an amazing band. Seems they epitiomise the crazy mid 60s onwards. And Jerry Garcia - what a charismatic, likeable guy.
Welcome on board!
Go to a rainbow gathering. Come to an annual in July 2022 in the 🇺🇸 Next best thing since Jerry boarded the saucer. Although last one I went to was in 02'. 10,000 free people in the woods.

There was simply nothing like a grateful dead show eh? The energy and excellent recording come shining through to my memories of those daze gone by. At 64 now and reminisce about my first show at tower in 75. Then as I listen to this and realize this was 45 years ago! Yet I'm 19 and smiling at heart. No words of gratitude can express what the "FAMILY" did for decades to keep us in JOY AND LOVE 💕. or
I love you more than words can tell, listen to the river sing sweet songs.
Thanks for all you do to keep me truckin on.

I love you for sharing your experience. I'm dancing, listening with my face to the sun right now, with my eyes closes ...it takes me back. there.
God bless you Charlie Miller your handiwork is enjoyed by innumerable heads but most haven't a clue as to how many hours you spent in the archive transferring analog tape to digital medium editing and mixing thousands of shows for our benefit. Thank you Charlie Miller your name should be spoken within the same pantheon as/of The Grateful Dead. Bless you Sir.
Yes indeed!! Thank you so much 💓
It's God's work.
@@mattcouch2965 hi Matt!
Wonderful comment!
Is this Charlie?
Part of what makes this mix so epic is that you can cleanly hear Bobby. I feel like a lot of the magic that can only be found at live shows is being able to hear Bob clearly. Lots of mixes and recordings have him too low.
He's a fabulous rhythm guitarist - learned so much from his licks.
My cousin just got me into the dead a little more than a year ago. We have been to 2 dead n co concerts at dead creek setting up on shakedown and to one Bobby show in Wisconsin. They have truly changed my life :)
@@kennymccormick6366 as they did for so many of us
if he had practiced more they would have turned him up...... i've read dan healy dialed him out completely in the mid 80's...to the point jerry had to intervene..... the truth is he was a terrible guitar player who got lucky when he met jerry garcia

And the weekend can begin. Excellent
Is it weird I've been listening to live shows for about a month straight now, I think not! I actually feel sorry for anyone who hasn't experienced the dead yet
I'm always humbled and thankful for the grateful dead who post for Wall of Sound, I want to thank them too. I appreciate so much being one of the grateful dead. Artwork is wonderful, WOS. Thank you.
what do you mean post for wall of sound? you mean post music during the wall of sound era?
I’ve always been a Spring 90 guy, but this show converted me. May 77 is the tops, and this is my favorite show. The sound quality on this is simply stunning. Best GD show I’ve ever heard and all members of the band in fine form. Thanks so much WOS!
Toss in Summer 89 for the Holy Trinity of tours 🙏
Wow! I was at this show! Also playing in a band called " ONE" in the late seventies. So much music!
My first show. Blew me away. Couldn't get tix for Cornell but did for Buffalo. The start of my long strange trip.
Wow, nice start 😎
Mine two
Piano sounds GREAT
This show melts my ❤️ and my FACE!
Ikr, face literally, stolen. Those that don't know the pleasure... Welp, on that note, time to open up the house and turn it on up ⚡💜⚡
Peggy-O definitely melts my heart
whenever I am able to get a hold of doc brown's DeLorean im headed to all the 77-78 shows!!!
Proof that time travel is impossible….otherwise every show would have been overrun by time traveling heads!
(Unless they’re viewing from a dimension we can’t see.)
While the entire band is firing on all cylinders, I feel it is important to note how well Keith & Donna sound here.
Hot show Jerry sounds great 76 77 shows sic English town Roosevelt stadium 76 great fuck variants got dead we will survive where Yanks never lose sly staten isle
Donna was a good singer when she could hear herself. A lot of the shows where she is off-key were when her vocals were buried in the mix. Saw her a few times with the JGB in small venues, and she sounded great every time,
Agree, lovely to hear when they are all so syncronistic.
@@davidlilker6054 Those high harmonies, esp in the big mix (not monitors), gotta be spot on or they stand out... Then, turn her up beyond where typical high harmonies would be mixed, and it gets scary. When (?) Bobby planted her dead center on stage and made her a "lead harmony" singer... What's a soundboard engineer to do?
Donna was FIRE in 77
Been on the bus for only three years or so, this is the best live Dead I’ve heard yet. ✌🏼
What an inspiring laid back Bertha. One of their best.. great backbeats by Bill and Mickey. And the funny feedback moment 😃
I was reading your comment exactly when the feedback happened!
✌💀🎸🎼🎵🎶🌌♾🌌🌹🧠
Man, I'm also just hearing 'the drummers' on New Minglewood Blues for my first time and props for pointing them out!
I've been comatose. Just today I decided to check out the entire Spring Tour prior to Cornell. Ooof! Missed sooo many years of aural pleasure.
its my first time listening to this one and I made the same exact yell as Bobby did just a second earlier lol
one of phil's best bertha's as well - the slower pace allows him to really pull off some deep, intuitive plucks
Sweet 77, what a year
Really clean sound. Thanks. WOS
I completely enjoy and love reading everyone's comments...i get a visceral thrill from your wonderfull descrptions on your precise thoughts, feeling and emotions elicited by our favorite band. juat about ever comment is all thumbs ups! I love the supportive mindselt. while i was thinking....'what a cool group ofpeople..', i realized something obvious: the fans, the crew, the tapers, the deadheads..the whole family, made the the most special experiences imaginable what ihey were. I am Grateful to you all!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂😂
I was born 6/5/77 and I commandeer this show as my birthday show. I have no choice!
Jerry is spitting fire in this show!
The greatest show ever. From anyone. From the feedback and laughs they turned it into magic. This is what makes you a dead head. Im in love
how they record da music?
@@judohondaboiii straight to reel to reel on soundboard, and about 50 tapers mics in the audience as well, for the crowd noise files
An audio treat for sure. Love Jerry's mourning, soulful voice on Peggy-O, among many other's in this cache of love.
Crystal clear I was amazed the cymbals chimevlike they are in my room.
Grooving tonight🎉🎉🎉
somehow missed how good this music never stops was
I was there
It was the best concert experience of my life !!
The Dead never played better than May 1977
I was there, and yeah, May was great, as was late April. This was my fourth GD show ever, and also my fourth in two weeks (Springfield, NYC, New Haven, Boston).
I was there too! It's lovely to hear such a great recording of the show! Cheers!
@@rajsuss you started out hard core. Sweet
@@rajsuss what is your estimated total at the end?
i agree
This has been one of my favorites for years. Sounds way better here than my old Denon cassette copies 😊
Ikr, Big ol Thank You to Wall of Sound for this gem
💛🌹💛
You should have used Maxell XL II cassettes, because those would still sound great now.
LOL. So true.
For those looking for the Buffalo show 2 nights later, I have yet to find a copy that meets the required standard. Will put it up as soon as I do :)
Edit! Buffalo's up: ua-cam.com/video/nBWjyrl9CQ0/v-deo.html

I’m Mississippi half stepping into blissful oblivion!!!!! Jerry’s voice is on point, everyone is on point
My favorite jam so far. Good taste you have ✌️😁👍🥰😊
I always appreciate your posts…. Especially when they are “Betty boards”. Peace.
Among other moments, I can’t recall ever hearing such a perfect Cassidy. It scratches the most primal of itches!
Finally! this may be the first dead show I have ever heard screechy Donna howling in tune......woo hoo!
For certain. This is literally the first time she doesn't sound like nails on a chalkboard. Keith really slays this one too.
@@ckahlquist2129 Man I really miss Jer! His voice is so amazing.....what a fantastic recording.

For anyone who got to experience the Dead at the OLD Boston Garden… that place was a shrine for sports and shows.

Wow... Here I am again, amazed with Eyes of the World as always. Just... wow
I like fast ones like this

My first Dead show! I did not know a lot of the songs, but "The Wheel" was a revelation, and was probably what made me a fan. Thanks for posting! Special remembrance of Larry Kletter z"l, my dear buddy, who, because Sabbath-observant Jews will not ride in cars on the Sabbath, walked from campus 10 miles west of Boston to Boston Garden for the show. He was an Order of the Arrow Scout, and it was a very nice spring afternoon, so he enjoyed it.
Shomer F***king Shabbos!
I did something similar for my first and only Bowie concert, at Sailors Snug Harbor on Staten Island. After shul and kiddush, I walked about 5.5 miles to the concert. My non-Jewish friends held my ticket for me, because I wasn;t even supposed to carry on shabbat. Ibarely made it.

Made my afternoon WOS ….yet again🎶🍽❤️
OK OK...Flashback time...the art on this brought me back to the time I was comin' down off a good eL two-five high at a driving range. I was still lit and tagging drives like nobody's business. And every time a ball flew high and far into the night sky I hallucinated a giant Steal Yer Face on the night's dark canvas to let my ball pass gracefully through. That SYF reappeared and seemed real to me in shot after shot as I unloaded on that large bucket of balls. Boom! Pow! Owie! Wowwie! Right off my head.
I love spinning and closing my eyes at a good show, it’s all lightning bolts lightning bolts lightning bolts roses roses skulls roses lol. I can even do it without L nowadays… how lucky we are.
Who fucking cares

This is a classic show & should be enjoyed by all ⚡
This Eyes is nothing short of stunning. The '76 - '77 years were some of my favorite shows, and I remember having to beg my friends' older brothers to make cassette tapes for me. And then, having those shows was like having a superb, coveted, wine collection. I love that I can type in a date and here it is...(and the quality is so much better). Thank you for posting this one. ❤
just making my way through it. I've loved everything...but that Mississippi Half Step! The final section is two chords. How on earth could Jerry get so much out of it? Beautiful!
IWT. The 'Half Step' was STUPENDOUS! Being there for it and so much more was UPLIFTING!
WOS!! Holy fookin hot ness!!! Terrapin Sampson 2nd set opener!! This is what its all about!! 77-78 nothings better!!
Every year was THE BEST YEAR with them! The Dead...eternally loved. Great Gratitude and Special Thanks to you, Wall of Sound.
63 year old man I followed the Grateful Dead back in the late seventies early eighties when they did to Shoreline show over in the East Coast it was spiritual I traveled all over the east coast to see them from Pennsylvania all the way to Maine Rhode Island Connecticut with the Connecticut show also and when they played with the Starship and was thrown out of the state of Connecticut but they have fixed that I guess LOL LOL to all you deadheads out there you know the experience to see them play is a spiritual thing to see the Lost in the crowd and the music I was blessed to see them and will never ever forget that experience with Grateful Dead and Starship with Gracie Slick it was incredible I believe the Hell's Angels would have bouncers the place was wild they took over to the state of Connecticut it was a hell of an experience what a long strange trip it was what a long strange trip it is God bless you all deadhead live forever
Long live freedom!
Absolutely BLAZING HOT Music Never Stopped!
That might be the best Music Never Stopped ever. I was transported
This band saved my life
Unfortunately it cost Jerry his.
Everything has a purpose. Life lessons humans mirroring each other. Jerry's death is apart of a larger unseen plan @@Soli_Deo_Gloria_.
@@Soli_Deo_Gloria_. Everybody dies at some point, I think Jerry had lived more in his 30~ years of touring with the band than most people have lived in their entire lives. I'm sure he was grateful to have such a wonderful band, even if his life was cut a little short. Being in the band isn't what killed him, it was ultimately a lifetime of drug abuse and unhealthy habits.
God bless the Dead for allowing tapers at their shows 🎶❤️🎶❤️
I was in third grade and I wouldn’t see my first show until 10/29/85.....and I never looked back folks!
omgosh the peggy-o and the music never stopped
The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of ...7, 9 and that one in between, plus 17 and 18/5, the Winterland run in June and 30/12. Cheers from England for another great upload WOS.
Well, What A Long Strange Trip It's Been, Indeed! I suppose some of the listeners may have noticed that this show was performed the day before the very famous 5/8/77 Barton Hall performance at Cornell University? In any event, this performance in Boston was absolutely outstanding! From beginning to end, including the little laugh during the feedback in Bertha, this show was fantastic! And, yes, many thanks to Charlie Miller for providing such an excellent recording of this historical performance! God Bless the Grateful Dead!
I was truckin' along the Mass Pike listening to this gem. Thank you for posting! The long Miles just flew by. Gracias amigos!
Blessed to see and hear the wall of sound!

the sound quality of this show is amazing, everybody is ripping
Thanks for providing the link for artwork. They’re breathtaking images. Thanks too for this show. Enough can’t be said about that May ‘77 run man. All cylinders each night man.
It is nice that they at least credited the artist, but WOS probably should have asked permission (or actually paid the artist) to use it.
@@richking250 imagine the possibilities.
@@augustwest1760 the possibility that people stop stealing, reproducing and publicly displaying original work owned by others for their own gain you mean? We don't have to imagine it, we can insist on it (and call people out for doing it). You can either help, or stay out of the way.
@@richking250 woah, slow down. Imagine the possibilities yes. First I was thankful to be given link to artist. Purchases? Donations? Second I imagined, based on your initial comment, was of my hope that all creative rights are respected.
I have to say this is one of the best I’ve ever heard. I just listened to the whole thing on a car ride from Philadelphia to Boston. The traffic was horrible but I hardly noticed. This concert is a true treasure from beginning to end. Love the happy 18th birthday shout out at the beginning to “Billy” - some lucky kid who clearly had awesome seats at the show. Crazy to think that “Billy” is almost 65 now, if he’s still with us.
Love this. FYI Bob is talking about Billy Kreutzmann, one of the drummers. He's being facetious though, as Bill turned 31 on this date. 😀
@@WallofSound65 seriously that’s awesome. So glad you told me that. Lol.
@@jkershenbaum that’s so funny glad I learned that

My soul needed to hear this show today. I'm not even sure why I'm crying but it feels good.
Bertha into Cassidy into Deal into Jack Straw into Peggy-O....what a way to open a set!
Jerry freaking rips this one. What a setlist and the pace is just right
Night one of the Holy Trinity!
This recording is absolute perfection!! Anyone that's ever been to see any rock band at the Boston gardens knows it's the absolutely worst place for sound. Lucky for us Sound man Dan Haley recorded this and many other shows directly off the sound board. We get only the Best possible recording. Dan Haley (owned??) radio station KERG in Garberville CA. (Weed capitol of the world)Humboldt county now KMUD. Every Friday night on KERG was the show"Dead Air" all of the sound board recorded shows were aired including this one. That was 1983. I never saw the Dead in Boston, I moved from Massachusetts in December '76 to Colorado, saw first Dead show at Red Rocks in 78
We can hear the beautiful piano playing by Keith!!!
Such a great show! I've listened to it so many times through the years and it just gets better and better and better!
This show is my CORNELL !!
I was there...close to the same angle as the camera. No doubt one of the most charismatic persons I have ever seen! She was stunning that night. I watched slackjawed in silence while she mesmerized a small crowd in a small tent late on the first night of the first Bonaroo. Never forget😊

This Eyes is absolutely nuts!
72', 77' and 78'' are my favorite years.
One of my biggest regrets in my life is not seeing them live in the 70's when I had the chance.
When Keith is high in the mix, he add such depth!!! I wish I saw them before I was 12 so I could have seen keith and donnaa. Would have been nice to see them around 4 or 5 to see pigpen but my folks were squares and wouldn't let me go because it was a school night and I had kindergarten the next day
Haha same applies for me.. but with Jerry when I was 4 or 5 😂
Fabulous show. I have nursed a cassette tape of this for more than thirty years. It will be in tomorrow's trash! Another pat on the back for WoS! The May 9 show at Buffalo (the day after Cornell) was also fabulous. I have always preferred the Boston and Buffalo shows over the much lauded Cornell show.
Good grief don't put it in the trash MAIL IT TO ME!! I love Grateful Dead artifacts.
@@moodswingy1973 SShhhhh! I won't really put it in the trash. I should also report that one day about twenty years ago, I gave away my entire tape collection to a kid working in a bookstore who was wearing a Grateful Dead teeshirt. Seven hundred cassettes, which filled an entire closet in my house. I had fallen in love with my third wife who felt that we really needed that closet. The things we do for love as they say. The kid seemed thrilled. Maybe WoS has the Buffalo show?!
@@danielthomasmoran Ah twenty years ago. That "kid" would have been around my age, the last generation of kids actually old enough to see Jerry live. The Grateful Dead was still popular among us college kids in the early 90s. I just went to a Dead and Company show and, while I love those guys (most of them) they seem like a faint echo of The Grateful Dead of my youth.
Agreed & I would point out also the May 5th New Haven CT. the day before...
but personally i'll take about any of those May shows that year of '77...
i mean just listen to the Florida shows later that month. Really the whole goddam year even... look at that first Terrapin and Estimated show back in Feb. 26th of '77 .....insane-
and was an awesome Franklin Tower too
@@moodswingy1973 I would highly recommend reading "On the Road" and "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test" which will explain how The Dead really came to be The Dead. Cheers!
I was at this show and the Springfield show 4-20-77 (?), my 1st show. I remember the whole Garden was dancing wildly. Missed Cornell and Buffalo, alas.
I think 1981 is their most cohesive year but man this is one of my favorite shows of the 70s. There’s something sweet about this year. Those Mississippi half steps were something else
Beautiful! Thank you kindly! 💙🙏💙
Been a big fan of the Dead since 2014 when i was 14, im 23 now and am just hearing this show for the first time. I have NEVER heard pure incredible energy from them like in this show ever, this show is absolutely INSANE. Im a huge fan of the Cornell ‘77 show, i love that one to death, but this one man.. this one.
@jlloyd2968, I remember discovering the Dead live tapes high quality and fell in love with the scene. Traveling from city to city. I had the best times of my life.I am glad that you are enjoying this.Great many shows that you can find.This band is unlike any other!!
Brilliant! Thank You!
I was there with my best buddy Martin Garcia. We danced.
I'm so happy that they are relevant AGAIN. The MUSIC WILL NEVER STOP
Turn it up man! Thanks for sharing my kind friend. May the music never stop ✌️
Love this version of Big River
As they rolled into Peggy o so sweetly smooth, the echo in Jerry's guitar and voice transported me there and there is where ever that sound, in my head and my ear holes as that magical sound so profound comes to me on the warm afternoon breeze and literaly BLOWS MY HAIR BACK. Feels like home..Awesome quality of a recording of a live show, great work. The Drummers knocking nails into the walls HEY HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILLY....PeaceOrElse
i like to find an old show, glance at the setlist and most of the time ill know 90% of the songs, and ill just plug in and play with the whole set, and god the big river was wicked fast, and it nearly sprained my wrist
Love this show
Peace Love Truth and Beauty, Dead Heads

Thank you for posting this.
This is my favorite set of theirs ever. I copied it from a cool hippie chick Joni in ‘95. Thx Joni.
