Playing, Playing in The Hub, September 15-16, 1972, Boston Music Hall



So folks look for answers, others look for fights.  September 1972 is rarefied air in Grateful Dead mythology. So far released from this month are:

Sept 3, 19723 live songsDick's Picks, Vol. 36, Grateful Dead, 2005
Sept 17, 1972LiveDick's Picks, Vol. 23, Grateful Dead, 2001
Sept 21, 1972LiveDick's Picks, Vol. 36, Grateful Dead, 2005
Sept 24, 1972Live30 Trips Around The Sun Box Set, Grateful Dead, 2015
Sept 27, 1972LiveDick's Picks, Vol. 11, Grateful Dead, 1998


Here are two shows that don't much attention from just a hair over 45 years ago (Boston rare reviews usually skip 1971 and 1972 and point out 1969-1970 for lengthy jams and 1973-1977 for the songs.
On Saturday, for its only time ever, Dark Star went into Brokedown Palace (see list of others here)
There are two monster versions of Playing In the Band as well.

Thank you all. See ya next time we're in Boston.
