GRATEFUL DEAD-AVALON ’69
Posted on May 25th, 2009 by ekkoTo me, the Dead never got better than their 1976-77 period, where we had Cornell, the first Terrapin Station shows, and some phenomenal Eyes jams. But a close second for me is their early 1970s period, including some ’96 shows. Like this one. From April 5, 1969, at the Avalon Ballroom in San Francisco, CA, where they played so many of their best psychedelic shows, this is cut from a soundboard.
