Dead Show/podcast for 3/30/12

There were quite a few outstanding shows that took place in early Spring throughout the history of the GD, so picking one for this week's show wasn't that easy. I think this is however a good show from an outstanding tour, Spring of 1987. The band roars out of the gate on Jack Straw, then goes into an outstanding Franklin's Tower, in honor of Philadelphia I presume.. The first set is full of sparkling playing and high energy. I'm personally fond of the Candyman, however, in the more soulful vein..I'm even willing to give them a pass on the perfunctory 'Don't Ease' which closes the set... the second set next week is very good as well.. The sound quality is not pristine but quite listenable, I think. I hope you enjoy it, and that your Spring is busting out all over too. 3/31/87 - Grateful Dead The Spectrum - Philadelphia, PA Set One:Jack Straw ->Franklin's Tower C C RiderRamble On RoseTons Of SteelMama Tried ->Big RiverCandymanDesolation Row ->Don't Ease Me In You can listen to this week's Deadpod herehttp://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod033012.mp3">here>:http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod033012.mp3">http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod033012.mp3">http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod033012.mp3 The Deadpod exists only through your support.. thank you my friends.....
