Was there in Philly for the 8/4/74 show..."Wall of Sound" was there too...incredible acoustics. '74 and '77 are my favorite years. Archive.org used to be easier to get these...but I had already grabbed them (.shn format) many trips around the sun ago.
Weather Report suite was new, and was blown away hearing it the first time live. Now I have the Dicks Picks CD set of these shows to re-live the fun.

Grateful Dead - 1969-02-22 Dream Bowl Vallejo, CA (2026)
Grateful Dead So much more than just the archetypal jam band, the Grateful Dead grew to become an artistic and cultural institution that existed entirely on their own terms. While the band initially came out of a psychedelic revolution in the Bay Area's musically and chemically exploratory mid-'60s, they quickly evolved from their acid rock beginnings, incorporating elements of Americana and Bakersfield country into gently majestic albums like 1970's American Beauty. Their live shows were completely separate from their studio output, based on freeform improvisation borrowed from jazz and made up of extended performances and set list variations that ensured no two shows were exactly like. Though the band recorded only 13 studio albums between 1967 and 1989, an entire counterculture formed around their endless touring, and they even broke through to the mainstream with an unlikely radio hit in the MTV era.
Track List:
Set 1:
01. Dupree's Diamond Blues
02. Mountains of the Moon
03. Dark Star
04. Cryptical Envelopment
05. The Other One
06. Cryptical Envelopment
07. Death Don't Have No Mercy
Encore:
08. Doin' That Rag
09. St. Stephen
10. The Eleven Jam
11. Turn On Your Love Light

I decided to open another box of un-filed GD bootlegs. And to my surprise I found all of my Acid Tests recordings. Total of 10 cd's. The top pair are actually released with Mickey & The Hartbeats as the artist. The other 8 are boots, 6 of them are in a compilation form. The last pair I'll have to see if it's different material than the comp.
Archive has a collection also.

Mine is the same Chappell matrix and it sounds mint but archive has it out of order with the songs mislabeled.
Anyway, I'm playing the correct 1/22/78 Eugene OR show that flows seamlessly from song to song in the correct order.

This afternoon I watched this the closing night of the Bobby & Phil Duo tour.
