I think 6/23/90 qualifies as a Playin sandwich.

I think you are correct too

6/29/76 is so beautiful. The jam out of The Wheel is gorgeous.

Grateful to have found your site! I shall comment on the Burlington 78 show—the reason I ended up here—but for now I’ll send out into the world my currently very high level of astonishment at the Fox Theatre 10/18/72 Playin>DS>Dew>Playin sandwich. It is stunning interplay from the band and a perfect snapshot of them at their absolute best for the time period, the aforementioned 1972…which means it’s a snapshot of them at arguably their career best in terms of overall quality.

I know for certain there are many other similar quality shows throughout that 365 day stretch, something I confidently assume anyone reading this comment will agree with; but there are sacred few that contain the level of laser sharp, every-emotion-contained-within-full band interplay and the at times seemingly choreographed improvisation that gets showcased here for 50 plus minutes to start the second set. The remaster from Charlie Miller fixes the problem of Weir’s guitar being too heavy in the mix on the OG board. The result of Mr. Miller’s thoroughly appreciated (as usual and forevermore) service is a perfect, almost official release caliber glimpse of the greatest band ever doing something that they were only capable of. A thousands bows in gratitude again Charlie Miller.

Starting with Playin and the alien swamp fusion the number’s jams led to starting somewhat recently before this set opening version, in particular Phil is so bombastic and perfectly on (counter)point…he is downright aggressive. Weir deserves props as well. He was going to get fired from the band for an inability to keep up with Jerry and Phil only a little while prior to this, but he does a more than admirable job of keeping up and adding color and texture. Jerry is Fall 1972 Jerry during all of this, meaning he was a Miles and Coltrane level improviser in both creativity, taste, restraint, all the best superlatives.

Dark Star is the continuation of the Phil showcase, after a brief drums interlude from Bill (somewhat early in the set) I would love to know what the band discussed during this quick break. In that regard, I wonder how people dosed on Owsley or Nick’s Lysergic were able to make it through this piece intact…to be a fly in the wall in either case. Phil drops a bass solo that is vicious, at times almost mean but then Jerry comes back leading the rest of the band with him and he is a perfect breeze to that almost evil Lesh production. Jerry’s counterpoint to Phil seems mood based.

Drops into Dew…incendiary. What can I say except Jerry doing the Dew in 72 and it peaks and peaks and peaks before…perhaps the highlight, Jerry straight dripping back into the Playin jam theme from before with such precision and at such a fast rate of speed that the tonal switch is like the snap of one’s fingers. The buildup to Donna’s wail at the crescendo is even unique, and while I don’t mind them like so many people, even DJG haters should hear how she makes this work on the Remaster. The journey from the end of Dew to that Donna scream of joy is patient and literally perfection.

That’s what I have to say about the Fox 1972 Playin’ Sandwich….get to it yourself as fast as you can. I think you’ll agree, there are few more gigantic but impeccably delicious.
