Dead Show/podcast for 8/4/17

Here is the second set from the band's performance on July 25th, 1972 at the Paramount Theater in Portland Oregon. I think its a great performance to hear during these 'Days Between' as it showcases the band at one of the peak times of their career. Check out the rousing 'Greatest Story Ever Told' and the unusually languid 'China Cat->I Know You Rider' that follows. The Other One and the jams around it are the stars here however. I'm happy that this one includes a fine 'Wharf Rat'.. while the ballads during this period didn't match the intensity of the later years, it still holds a special place when I'm thinking about Jer.        Grateful Dead Paramount Theatre Portland, OR 7/25/72 - Tuesday   Two He's Gone [8:46] ; Greatest Story Ever Told [5:15] (6) ; China Cat Sunflower [6:38] > I Know You Rider [4:55] (7) ; Mexicali Blues [3:25] ; (8) Truckin' [11:58] > The Other One Jam [1:12] > Drums [3:02] > The Other One [27:11] > Wharf Rat [10:56] (9) ; Sugar Magnolia ; Sing Me Back Home [9:34] ; Not Fade Away [5:31] > Goin' Down The Road Feeling Bad [7:22] > Not Fade Away [3:02] (10)   You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:  http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod080417.mp3   Love is Real, Not Fade Away   thanks Jerry
