Every song in the first set is beautifully done. Great Garcia solos on TLEO and Row Jimmy, Brent is on throughout, and the Desolation Row has a unique bounciness to it. Great sound quality, too.

Loved to have been at this one. Extremely grateful for the archive. Worthy of the 5 star rating. Seriousely.

Good energy. Excellant jimbee33 2005-01-11 19:07:22 2005-01-11 19:07:22 5 29694 Ah. The 90's. This show is great among other shows during this period.

Absolutely, positively the best back to backs shows I ever saw. Better than the previous night???

I then upgraded to the whole show from a local LA radio program. Went back and listened again and this show still holds up. Solid overall. Big smiles remembering the great 89/90 run this band put together still holds up lobster12 2005-04-05 11:35:16 2005-04-05 11:35:16 4 40076 After night one I found myself at Phil's feet for night two--5 stars for completely selfish reasons--It's hard to say which night was better. That Victim craziness going into Foolish Heart knocked my shoes off I loved the China Doll between the Playin' and UJB--NFA w/o a Throwin' is always a nice surprise And Mr Milks yoyo on the Althea--always loved this song Peace 2 for 2 amaher 2005-04-29 11:29:58 2005-04-29 11:29:58 5 30730 If nothing else, listen to the Althea...After you do that, you will HAVE to hear the remainder...Jerry just rips EVERY tune. He was just on fire this night. YO MAHEY!! Wow dmilks 2005-05-03 13:22:56 2005-02-02 08:26:52 4 42508 Well, I actually got to listen to this show after being in a time-scrambled haze the first evening. I much prefer this show to the first night. The Althea is really intense and i think the Row Jimmy is really the quintessential version for me- the solo after the first verse is absolutely beatiful and strange and the singing is very deeply felt. The second set is fantastic. Playin jam is other-worldly, beautiful china doll, (I could skip on the Watchtower to be honest, but I've never liked the Dead's take on it all that much), strong Black Peter, and a really exciting, unique, and well played NotFade Away- really great jam. A definite beauty dougly 2005-05-29 20:07:55 2005-05-29 20:07:55 5 47646 The quality is outstanding, and the first set is magnificent. One of the best Jack Straws ever, and the Row Jimmy has an excellent Brent solo. Jerry lets him go on, and then comes in with this line that just gives me the shivers.... Excellent show from the 90's with Brent at top form. Deer Creek maxwell3 2005-08-04 19:05:07 2005-08-04 19:05:07 5 47647 The quality is outstanding, and the first set is magnificent.

Sure, there are a few flubs here and there, but no show was ever completely flawless. Picasso Moon and Althea are excellent, as is the first half of the second set. A very, very solid late Brent-era show. Get it. Don't Think Twice, It's Alright pvcnova 2005-11-01 23:48:44 2005-11-01 23:48:44 5 61058 I attended these two deer creek shows -- my first venture out west -- and loved every minute of it. everything fell into place: the weather, the awesome parking lot scene, the lax security, the band playing "ON". The previous night's first set was the best of the run, but the first set on the 19th was awesome, too. I have always looked for a clean copy of this one. This is it. nyc deadhead Dead Forever 2006-01-30 04:05:47 2006-01-30 04:05:47 5 64882 Thank you so much! I attended this show and have had AUD tapes for years, but the quality here really sparkles. And kudos to the other reviewers, upon listening this really is one of the best Jack Straw renditions I ever heard. Bobby was definitely fired up! Wow nickajack13 2006-03-21 06:54:24 2006-03-21 06:54:24 5 67942 How this version of desolation did not make it onto "Postcards..." is beyond the pale. 5 star 1st; 3 star 2nd. looka here yer honor Solo Head 2006-05-05 14:46:51 2006-05-05 14:46:51 4 This one is good, but I find the version of desolation from alpine valley 89 to be the definitive hair raising goose bumper. Jerry's trickles, solo's and colorings of Bobby's lyrical work are just outstanding, and lead the listener by the hand and heart, into that realm of emotion within his playing that is so pure, exposed, and beautiful. My top desolation, hands down. top 5 desolation's 4 dcj 2006-05-20 12:51:03 2006-05-20 12:51:03 Great Quality - I truly believe that the brent years produced some of the tightest playing shows ever. Has anyone herd of Jeff Matheson-he plays with the zen tricksters-he plays and sounds just like jerry. He played with phil once and phil got scared so he wont play with him anymore. Missing Jerry 5 Philzone 2006-06-23 09:21:48 2006-06-23 09:21:48 Puts her hands in her back-pockets...Betty Davis style.. Oh yeah... Pourik 2007-07-19 10:43:20 2006-07-19 16:16:46 5 The weather was perfect. The humidity was low. The shows were sold-out bigtime. The Grateful Dead stepped up to the plate and delivered solid performances. The audience was tickled-pink to be there. Expectations were high, and the Boyz didn't let anyone down. The Audience recordings of this run capture the crowd's energy level; seek them out if possible. The 7.19.1990 'Black Peter > NFA' will get you pumped-up via the audience recordings out there versus the bored recordings -but either will make a fan proud! These were all hot shows~ :) Clay Superb 3 Night Run at Deer Creek... 5 clayb 2006-10-26 01:40:57 2006-10-26 01:40:57 What a great time I had at these shows. Drove from Buffalo, NY. The sweetest Row Jimmy ever! Really! So glad to be able to hear these wonderful shows again. Thank You Archive for bringing such great memories back..Love Ya! The Creek 5 nambo 2006-11-14 23:40:06 2006-11-14 23:49:14 One of my favourite 90's Playin's. A surprise China Doll that had me weeping. A great show all around and no small feat considering the outstanding show the day before. Go get it! Superb! 4 sydthecat 2006-11-15 03:32:19 2006-11-15 03:32:19 This is just great. My run was '82 until the end. So like many I am partial to the Brent years. As others have said the Desolation is well worth repeated listens to this show. Another gift 5 Mellowman 2006-11-15 13:44:28 2006-11-15 13:44:28 I have had the DSBD copy on Maxell for 16 years---I only play it a few times a year so I do not lose the early generation SBD copy I have so treasured. If anyone out there has this downloaded and could burn a copy--I will more than cover an necessary fees-efforts to get this gem on CD. Please contact me @ richmccalmon@gmail.com if you can help me out. Mucho gracias. It would mean the world..... update 7/20/07 Thanks Rob V. for sending a copy my way and thanks to you others who offered the same. Thank you all . Anyone have this show downloaded? Burnt Rich 2007-07-20 12:57:41 2007-05-11 20:32:00 5 The night before was magical, but not to be outdone this night, the boys came out and laid on us another fantastic night, complete with a rare China Doll. eclipsed? homer4bama 2007-05-16 21:35:43 2007-05-16 21:35:43 5 no huge sparks but solid pretty much all the way through. good tleo and peter which were to often not so good. i'd agree with dcj though about the desolation row alpine 89. definitley the best. this one doesn't really come close. i could see some one giving this a 5, ill give it a 4. good solid show wi head 2007-08-21 02:04:52 2007-08-21 02:04:52 4 This has to be one of the best Victims played, hands down.

I have to agree on the Victim/Foolish. it seemed that Jerry and Brent loved playing that together. Great Recording billykfan 2007-12-13 18:54:32 2007-12-13 18:54:32 5 After utilizing this incredible site for the past few years, I've come to the realization that everytime I think I've blown my mind, I listen to a show like this and have to reconsider what's mindblowning!!! The Jack Straw is upbeat and solidly played...umm Jerry??? I've never quite heard a guitarist who could keep rhythm and lead like he could, what a rare talent. Victim -> Foolish is truley rewarding. As previously posted, I would most definetley appreciate a copy of this show so I can enjoy and share alike!! AMAZING!!! TennesseFred 2008-01-19 01:24:57 2008-01-19 01:24:57 5 34 4.65
