an obscure diamond in the rough from ’71 is this fine allegheny college gig from meadville, PA. like many of the shows at this time, it was broadcast over the FM airwaves which were essential to the dead’s success and had opened up a whole new market for the band. this performance is culled from one of the early betty cantor 7” two track reel recordings, and the pre-FM quality really jumps off the tape. every tune is played beautifully and jerry rips off some extremely fierce solos. check it out. https://archive.org/details/gd71-04-15.sbd.eD.11652.sbeok.shnf
