One day, three sensational Dead
shows from three different eras.

This is
a phenomenal three-set show. Tickets were $5.50, and Bob Dylan was in

07/18/76
Orpheum
Theater - San Francisco, CA
This is
the last show of a five-night run displaying the band’s segue creativity. This
was also one of my first bootleg tapes. In my mind I could still envision the
Maxell tape and my precise penmanship with a red magic marker. The highlight is
this loop within a loop: The Other One
> St. Stephen > Not Fade Away > St. Stephen > The Wheel > The
Other One
