Dead Show/podcast for 7/11/25

This week we continue with the second set from the Grateful Dead's final show at the Fillmore West on July 2, 1971

This starts out with an unusual 'Sugar Magnolia' opener, going into a sweet 'Sing Me Back Home'.. after a short "Mama Tried' we are thrown into a whirlwind with a great 'Cryptical>Drums>Other One', with the Other One being dedicated to Owsley who was incarcerated at the time.. while this is perhaps the highlight of this set, the closing 'Not Fade Away>Going Down the Road>Not Fade Away' shows the band at their rocking best. Jerry prefaces the 'Johnny B Goode' encore with a 'Here's the one it's all about' :)
