Raven_Space Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 Dead: 69 - at their most fluid 70 - love those three set shows 72 - Europe and fall tour 73 - out there jamming, on another planet 74 - some really good shows 77 - after the dullness of 77, the band was on fire 83 - some underrated ones here folks 84 - probably better than 85 90 - Brent was at his peak, the band was never the same without him Phish: 94 - although the times i saw them in 92 were great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamH Posted September 5, 2003 Report Share Posted September 5, 2003 You guys must be joking about 89 dead...I always found that to be the Dead at their worst, Warlocks shows or otherwise. 72 is the year of years in my books, followed closely by '69, and I rate those years highly not because of setlist diversity or 90 minute darkstars but because of honest, unfettered originality. Those were times in which they were totally alone on some musical plane, and as musicians they had reached a point where they spoke without speaking and played without playing. I'm not much of a Phish collector. Whatever year A Live One is from, that'll get my vote I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
