Wall Of Sound

Garcia, Live Music

 

Much has been written about the Grateful Dead’s commitment to presenting a show with great sound. Today’s installment for Jerry “Week” is a show from June 18, 1974 when the Wall Of Sound was in its heyday. An older friend of mine once told me that the Wall of Sound was, to date (this was 1995) the greatest sound system he had ever heard. For more about the Wall Of Sound, here, and here.

 

1974-06-18
Freedom Hall - Louisville, KY

Set 1:
The Promised Land, It Must Have Been The Roses, Black Throated Wind, Ramble On Rose, Beat It On Down The Line, Loser, Mexicali Blues, Eyes Of The World -> China Doll, Around And Around

Set 2:
Loose Lucy, El Paso, Row Jimmy, Weather Report Suite -> The Other One -> It’s A Sin Jam -> Stella Blue, Big River, Tennessee Jed, Sugar Magnolia

Encore:
Morning Dew

This show represents yet another grand slam in a year when they were consistently hitting home runs. The whole thing is great from “It Must Have Been The Roses” to “Loser” to “Eyes > China Doll”and a second set that, still is in my car on cassette. Dim the lights, turn up the speakers and send the kids to bed…
