Grateful Dead   05/07/1972

Bickershaw Festival, Wigan, England
Recording SHNID 9193
Media SHN   5 discs
Notes aud/sbd w/ NRPS set. There are so many good E72 shows that it gets repetitive commenting on them. The 1st 2 disks are auds and are pretty good considering the equipment available at the time and the weather. PITB has a pretty painful Donna wail at the end but tasty jams inside, GSET some wah-wah juju, Good Lovin some funky Pig raps and earthy guitar work. Dark Star is too multi-faceted to descibe here but its another E72 monster with TOO for afterburners. He's Gone is a perfunctory short version unusual in retrospect for that. The Lovelight > GDTRFB > NFA ; OMSN encore tries to warm everyone up and isn't the best version on the tour.
