As a long time '' subscriber '' to both Dick's and Dave's picks ... DP's # 21 is finally a good one ! Jerry's guitar work and signature sound is beautiful and Phil really hits some bombs on this one. The world seemed to be kinder and gentler place when the Grateful Dead and the Allman Brothers were in it.      
Hello snackeyp -  thank you for the follow and the OP that started this thread. I can see how you could interpret my comment as such. I guess what I should have said was ; this Dave's Pick #21  - is a real good one ! You are right in that each one we get is truly a special treat .....This was also about the time in my life that I was ''discovering'' the Grateful Dead with Mars Hotel in hand. Yeahhh - listened to it on my way to work...great stuff !    
.......hmmmm let me add another post if I may; I went through the first three disc's as back ground music yesterday while I was painting and as I noted real good set / show. I am making Sunday morning pancakes and listening to the second disc and had to grab my coffee and listen to Pig Pen's Smoke Stack Lightning - wow , just wow ...and Jerry is just layin' it down ..... I  burnt my first batch of pancakes. This a real good one !     
I agree this is a good set and also very well produced - I think Jerry's guitar was the ; Alligator during this time and that one along with the Travis Bean which we will be listening to ; a lot next week with the box sets coming and also ; Wolf were my favorite sounds of Jerry's guitars. The sound he got from those three guitars is just plain.....sweetness. Man I miss them.     
......great  - let's all now hold onto our seats and heads with this box set coming !
