Notes:
- before the official release & Healy's 16 track mix-down, there was this beauty that blew a few minds back in '86.
- officially released as part of 'Fillmore West 1969: The Complete Recordings'
- in true Grateful Dead spirit; Phil, "Hey I don't remember it (Hey Jude)." Jerry, "Its okay man, we'll make it up as we go along."
- Lovelight - apparently the power went out as it magically did from time to time way back when.
- the encore break has some great banter between the band & the audience.

Thanks man
Thank youuuuu for these gems!!!!!
Wow - you've made this an art form unto itself. Beethoven would roll over!
thanks so much ! .. y'all are angels of the dead
Free Dead shows! Thank you. Man, I started with a pile of 2nd and 3rd gen tapes of any old shows I could find. Then, with CDs, I'd pick up a Dicks Picks for like $15. These days, buying physical copies of Dead shows costs like $75, so here I am, digging into clean recordings of excellent shows. I appreciate it so much. I listen to whole albums. I listen to whole shows. Thank you so much for sharing these shows! 🎉
The 5 years of magic that was the Haight between 1965 and 1970. Music every where, the Avalon, the Matrix, the Fillmore, the Family Dog at the beach, the Carousel Ballroom, the Pan Handle, Speedway Meadows. The Airplane, Quick Silver, Country Joe & the Fish, Big Brother, Hot Tuna, Santana, Steve Miller, Moby Grape ect, and at the center of it all The Dead. This two hours of magic captures the the glow of the super Nova that was the Haight. Thank you .Peace from a happy man.
I did the same thing about 10 years later in Nashville. I got to see U-2, AC/DC Talking Heads, B-52's, and too many to mention, but they were all in small auditoriums. I got to party with the Ramones back in their dressing room at the Exit Inn, in Nashville. I've got Joey's autograph somewhere.
Amen, brother. I was there for the second half of that and it was special, especially Speedway Meadows.
This is my favorite Dead era. Those early shows with Ron were incredible.
@@kennycarneal6765 Not remotely comparable.
I was there in spirit. I was born December 18,1965 on the night of an Acid Test! One More Saturday Night! God bless us, everyone!!!…
To repeat myself: This is what I fucking signed up for!!! Oh that they couldn't keep this level of ecstatic intensity up, oh Jerry ride it, not chase it ⚡⚡⚡
3-1-69 one of the best Other Ones ever played. Welcome to the Jerry Garcia guitar hour!
The closing Cryptical is intense and searing. 🐊🥀✌️
Yes, exactly. Jerry riding the galloping rhythm section into the farthest reaches of outer space!
Great show here. Use this knowledge to your advantage 😁✌🏻
54 years ago (3/1/2023) to the day.
Heard it first sometime in 1970; still sounds fresh and sweet.
Only the Dead produced music that still stands.
Owning this recording has brought me so much Joy. Personally, the Dead have never done anything like this. You can make an argument for the jams in 1973 and some breakout shows in 77. But, the raw, starlit energy of this run of shows….well, listen for yourself.
Peace Nick.
Check
How could any band keep up this level of intensity and psychedelic exploration without going completely insane?
1969. Their finest year
its all spiritual man
willie nelson was in the crowd for this show. Ask me how i know (i was there) me and willie shared a joint
Julia and John (myself) Grateful dead newbie here. I am fucking love gerry garcia. I saw David Grisman in the foothills west of Fort Collins. He played in an open field and played the banjo with a cool ass band. My three best friends and I were smoking pot and dancing our asses off!!! WE slept on the footbanks of the Colorado River in our sleeping bags. It was sky God chakra perfect!!! We drove to a diner near Winer Park and chatted up the hot waitress. This could be a movie!!! We cruised in Al's beat up brown pickup trunch throughout Colorado and watched the sunset. We caught the Widespread Panic show in Silverton and danced with beautiful Boulder babes and took ecstasy. I passed out in the back of the truck. It was fantastic. Al's drove me to work in Boulder the next day. I was sky God chakra tired. I slept at my desk!!! What a f*cking radiant weekend. Whew!!! There is more come for sure!!! Peace everyone!!!
Cool.
One of the best interpretations of Love Light ❤ Love to all dead heads from Poland. Shine it on me ✨
Sounds so crisp and clear. My ears are thanking my headphones which are thanking this recording. 🙇♂️
doesn't get any better than this. my favorite Grateful Dead run of shows
This and the following night are beyond superlative. For me this time period is just the most powerful and creative Dead at their best. Mind blown once again, many thanks.
12hrs later... I'm a puddle of non solidified wax....
Let us not forget the input here from one Owsley Stanlet the Third. He's why they could each other, which was an innovation - and if finer stage recordings exist, I wanna hear 'em.

I was about to add the cryptic to the set list also
You are right Kris, Lovelight is very worthy.
When the room is very cold but your rider is warm there is nothing like the access you can get with box-back (k)nitties.
Unlike 1969.02.17, this Mountains does not flow seamlessly into Dark Star. It sounds to me like Jerry needed to tune his guitar a bit.
@@floepiejane another picky Deadhead ;)
@@floepiejane As Joe might say..."What they are listening to is the whole thing"
see: Joe Satriani: Master Class "Always With Me, Always With You" on youtube
Why is Dupree's missing? I think this may need a reupload?
Wow. This is spectacular. Thank you!
Sweet!!! Hope all is well with you and yours 🙏
and yours 🤗
06:44.....Boop-a-doo
😂
❤it would be so awesome to walk outside and get in an old car drive down the road to the filmore and watch the Grateful Dead right now!
I can dream, there's nothing wrong with that, 😅❤🎉
Thanks Wos for getting me close!
Is this beauty a true 2-track recording or an 80’s remix (pre-Healey) from the 16 track? Or perhaps a vintage mix made for Live/Dead. Thank you WOS.
Had a crisp and juicy board of this back in the day. Probably from the same eight track source. Used to jump around to it.
If there is a better Cryptical, you would have to prove it to me. The ending, Jerry just wrings every last riff. All other players, step aside.
jebbus…Phil is on it! Hell..the whole freaking ✨
YeAAH! THE MAGNIFICENT 7!! TY WOS FOR TODAY'S DAILY DEAD
TC- special sauce those years. Majestically musical.
The Great High Hope! Definitely burned thru this tape many times! Thank you so much for posting this gem
"The bus came by and I got on, that's when it all began!!!
Can anyone tell me how the hell Bob Weir is typically referred to as a rhythm guitarist after listening to to any of the soundboard recordings. He's off in his own little world on these late 60's Dark Stars.
He's all about rhythm, just not metered. What he did do is redefine the role, as least for rock. If you didn't know, when he was kicked out of the band for a period, he immersed himself in to jazz, particularly pianist McCoy Tyner, to discover chord inversions how to apply them to the off-beat coloring of a song. This plus the unbreakable camaraderie got him back in the band. Give McCoy a listen, what he does while others solo, and you'll rediscover Bobby.
Rhythm,counter point and symphonic genius.
Bob Weir isn't your average rhythm guitar player 😉
@@johnev1233 I think he said his approach to playing guitar was like the pianist's left hand
A magical time - this period was the basis for "Live Dead" and that was the album that got me hooked on the Deads over the past 50+ years
Thank you!!! 69 Dead!!! Here we go!!!!
Oh My Frikken God This one hits the spot. Classick ⚡
Have the box set, but these boards are magical, my favorite run of GD shows
I've been checking out more of these '69 shows lately, and I have to say that I think I enjoy these more focused Dark Stars and Other Ones. Many of the '72-74 versions have great exploration, but I can generally do without the 10-20 minute long feedback and noise segments.
And damn, this New Potato Caboose is hot.
@@sweetdaddyjangles7194 you should have heard the original Potato Caboose!
@@mfranzwa1 Hahaha
listen to 8/24/68 for a great New Potato Caboose
Well, WoS this is like Christmas, Thanksgiving and one's first wet dream all rolled into one. I am curious about which of these were used to make the Live Dead album. I had read somewhere that they actually pieced together that album from different shows. It is generally considered, even among people who are no great fans of The Dead, that the Live Dead album is the literal definition of a great live rock album. In its time it was a revolutionary thing to do. I am also of the opinion that if one is to try to demonstrate to the unitiated what the Grateful Dead were all about at the height of their creativity, then the Live Dead versions of Dark Star/St. Stephen/The Eleven were it. The band admitted in later years that they had to all but stop playing those things because they were so technically demanding. If the Dead were the quintessential jam band then it was because of this specific era. Thanks again for all you are doing to save the human race by posting these shows!
It’s even my wet dream. And you said the rest perfectly as well. I could listen to this over and over even without acid.
@@gratefuldebpsychedelic
Wet dreams, indeed.
Listening now.
Turning volume UP.
😎
My dog recognizes William Tell and when this plays (as well as Dark Star) he instantly knows we are going to have hours of fun.
The dark star and st Stephen are from 2/27/69, the eleven and lovelight are from 1/26/69, and the last three songs are from 3/2/69.
Live/Dead the home of the Dark Star. This Other One screams .
Anyone here know who's on keys in this concert? Is it Pig or Constanten?
Here I am, on a Sunday afternoon enjoying this grateful song, this grateful melody, the Grateful Dead. Man, how I love this! Have a good day or a good night with this wonderful show folks. ✌
dude thats kickass the other one. ive pretty much skipped anything thats not 72-78 but this The Other one is intensley psyched out!
yes.. turn it up !! ... wow !!! .. maybe my fav Dark Star ever .. and of my fav overall shows ever .. so tight, expressive, melodic.. Ive been to many shows starting 77" .. but still think may fav years 69-71
OoooooWeeeeee!!
the grate high hope!
45:12 "Say, this is gonna be good, you guy's!"... Jerry!!!
Damn!! Jerry kicked in the door on this one.
At the 18 mark or so .... no time for me to be time-stamping ... holy smokes.
Great other one ☝️
Sending all of you love and light and good vibes 👊🦍😇
This is amazing! What more can I say, thank you.
Great stuff very trippy
this is not a test
Such an impressive Dark Star! Just hearing this for the first time... Graham's introduction and Bobby's retort seems to indicate an altered state type show.... Crazy great!
The next time i have to introduce someone to the GD this is what I'm gonna have them listen to.
The American version of the "Magnificent 7"??
1:52:05 - Hey Jude

This is fantastic cuz they and brilliant musicians…
unbelievably bursting with energy of an exploding sun!!!! One of the most charged cryptical envelopments put on magnetic tape!
50:17 - Dark Star
Thanks for posting this classic show!!💥🍄🍄🎃🍺🍺🎵
Thanks for posting this great show!
so much production. too much. my old sources are so cool.
Hahahaha Jesus Christ that was a hey Jude only a deadhead could listen to, and i fucking loved it hahaha
Cracklin with energy

Doin that Rag is my effing cut, yo.
Fucking awsome
Thanks WOS!
Amazing quality! Merci
As soon as I get some money, I will donate. These are the best recordings I've ever heard! ❤️
Love the Dead
Lots of dead elegance here.
I'm still looking for a show in Portland Oregon. They were doing Bertha during a rainstorm and the crowd went crazy when they went through that verse.
Every leaf was turning!
This is the dark star from live dead
Live/Dead's Dark Star is from 2/27/69, two nights before this one.
@@jamesm8132 oh dang thanks for the knowledge - these were some soulful dark stars
@@drabolit truly, I dig 2/28’s Dark Star almost as much as Live/Dead’s. Keeps the same themes but in a calmer way.
@@jamesm8132 how old are you?
Absolutley amazing
Let it shine!✌️
Shine it on me
💣💣💣
If you have to choose, would y’all rather see a late sixties or Wall of Sound era show?
Late 60’s for sho
69, 70, 71 my fav years !
It was the pig era long lived the pig
Wow. New panning scheme for me. Lovely balanced separation of the two drum kits. But Bob and Jerry crunched into center channel. Pig leaning right actually, but Bob's center rather than left.
So what's the lineage of this?
Two track stereo board captured by Healey, or 16 track mixed later by Healey? I'm not clear from the notes.
And as long as I'm asking questions, does anybody know if/when they stopped playing cryptic envelopement? I love it but actually can't recall if I've heard it pop up in later years. Did they stop?
And thanks again WOS! I've avoided shows before mid '72 for a few reasons. A lot of what went down 60's thru 71 is still mysterious territory for me. The '90's too. Cheers.
I think they brought back cryptical envelopment in like 85 for 3 shows
This era, primal Dead, contains some really beautiful jams. They're all still so young and have yet to suffer the hardships that will plague them. Jerry's got a lot more aggressive of a tone in these records, and to me, they just sparkle with that pure psychedelic brilliance. I highly recommend digging into the shows before mid 72, they are really excellent. If you use Spotify at all, they just released a 71 show from the Fox that COOKS! It's excellent.
90s Dead is tricky. Some of the absolute best shows come from 1990, but they were just never able to be the same after Brent died. The shows with Brent are INCREDIBLE--Wake Up To Find Out 3/29/1990 at Nassau with Branford Marsalis is one of my all time favorite Dead shows! And there are shows beyond Brent's death that are still incredible, but 89-90...wow :)
@@tjwood2511 excellent response!
I think I found them so smoothed out by the time Keith settled in, that the 60's era sounds often a bit "garage band" and punky blues, both in performance and recording quality. But I agree with you about energetics. I will retune my receptors for earlier shows. I HAVE heard some stellar Darkstar/Elevens, and I'm aware now there's gems to dig for. I much appreciate your perspective here
Post '90 I just had issue with Jerry's synth guitar and welnick drove me nuts with his overplaying.
Plus I moved to Maui in '91 and caught no live shows after that.
But some of the recordings I've heard from that 90's era sound sonically interesting at least.
But I adore the old school hard panned recordings from the 70's, the Betty etc boards using those tube splitters. More than when Healey was providing a chained mix feed from his live board mixes. He buried Bobby's guitar a LOT!
But I WILL ultimately tune in to the earlier and later years.
I just love '72 thru '85 deeply. Cheers! 🌹⚡💀⚡🌹
Any idea what guitar Jerry is playing here?
Aack...one of Phil's bass strings is out of tune...it ruins his Spanish break starting @ 27:00. Odd for him.
Just be grateful that it exists
Give 'em a break, he was probably tripping balls
Oy, one of the weakest Dark Stars from this period. Is that TC on organ? Ugh- just playing scales.
seriously ? .. I could not disagree more.. sorry
Best dark star..
One of the best shows ever..
Personal opinion....2/14/70 is my favorite Dark Star.
I love a good 69 soundboard.
