At the Frost back in '82, Bobby lit it up, making for a first set filled with nearly all potential best-ever versions. But the LL Rain might just be our favorite. It is a rich, intricately designed tapestry; you can pick out more and more of its artistry each time you listen to it. And don't miss the Satisfaction> It's All Over Now encore where Bobby goes all cheese before Jerry creates some utterly transcendent magic. Listen to it all at Grateful Dead of the Day.
In October 1968, with Pigpen and Bobby ostensibly kicked out of the Grateful Dead, the rest of the boys played a few shows as Mickey and the Hartbeats, including on this day at The Matrix. The oddities and stellar jams make all of these shows more than worth a listen.
