One thought on “The Grateful Dead – Boston, MA (04/21/69)”

  1. Thanks! My copy is missing Morning Dew and the sound quality is less than ideal – this looks like an upgrade. IMO Dark Star and The Eleven are the highlights – especially the latter. What a pity they dropped this from the repertoire! It is a joy to hear the boys tearing through the changes on this really complex piece – I am an amateur musician and can confidently say (because I’ve tried, with entirely embarrassing results!) that it is devilish hard to even get the 11 to the bar rhythm, let alone do anything with it..
