Another hot show from fall of '79. This show, as my brother recently pointed out, comes six years (and about a week) after the earlier gem from Pauly on 11/17/73- featured on Dave's Picks Vol. 5. Yeah, you all know the one, with the monster pitb-ujb-dew-ujb-pitb sandwich. At any rate, Phil is great, here; loud in the mix, dropping bombs throughout. Check him in Jack Straw, Minglewood, and Other One to name a few. My highlights include the first set-closing Sailer->Saint->Deal and the rollicking set two opener, Shakedown->Bertha. Really like the Stella, too.

Is there anybody willing to ReSeed this one? Going through my collection I noticed 11/25/79 is missing. I believe I have every other 79 show available but this one got away from me somehow. Thanks to anybody that can help.

Great overall 79 show with good energy throughout with a fantastic trippy Other One

another stellar jam into drums. There is such great energy in these fall '79 shows.

Another gr8 board from Mr. Miller. I've been really enjoying the '79 shows - the late 70s jams with an enhanced songbook, better sound quality, and Brent on keys. Love the Jack Straw here - Phil's bass is nice and loud, as it is throughout the show. Also, Bob is playing some of the best rhythm guitar I've heard him play.

I love the fall and winter of 79' some stellar shows came out of this period..Great sound A+..Solid first set..Listen to the Minglewood Phil drops some nice bombs and the interplay between Jerry and Bob is awesome..Bob drops the 'Studio City' where the little girls know what to do!! I like the slow and spacey Althea followed by a mystical Lost Sailor into a charged Saint of Circumstance. The 2nd set does not disappoint with a solid Shakedown>Bertha to start.. I agree with Doug on the Other One.. very trippy!! Solid through the rest of the set..so please GIVE IT A WHIRL

This show, and the few nights before an after it (especially Golden Hall) make up a particularly delightful vintage in the Dead's history. They are all incredibly well played, and the Charlie Miller SBDs sound so good. These are my favorite shows from the early Brent era. Bobby's guitar playing and tone are perfect. Jerry is putting Tiger to the fire. Love November '79 Dead.

Love lots about this show, and the highlight for me is the Stella Blue. Everybody is so dialed in and still staying loose. The epitome of the fleeting, gossamer delicacy that the band could create. Takes me back to my first revelations of the Dead's musicianship. Perfect. Thank you.

the sound quality is really nice and setlist is good. I am just really curious how anyone can call this the best jack straw he/she has ever heard. I really don't think it's even in the top 10 or 20 but overall the show is definitely worth a listen.

Best Jack Straw I have ever heard. I jizzed in my pants more than Andy Sandberg listening to it. Great set overall!

at the end of deal is hilarious.

For another wonderful transfer of a great show

Even though it was probably the best sound they ever had at U.C.L.A. and consequently my best recording, since a soundboard came out I eventually taped over it with the board!
I too liked the "Stella Blue", but I liked others versions better for example, the one I recorded at Winterland '78, (mine doesn't cut like the board), Denver McNichol's, (since it rained at Red Rocks), this year or San Francisco Orpheum '76.
I vote this as one of the best "Shakedown Street"->"Bertha" with the revolving accent on a chosen beat! The whole show is fairly good just like the San Diego shows before it.

this lost sailor is great. I love the dead and i used to make a lliving out of downloading thse soundboards.

Theres still a few random tunes i never really gave a full listen. It wasnt until a ratdog concert I was turned on to Lost Sailor>SOC. that song is simply brililant and this version is the apex (or up there with it).....many other highlights.

Ill be honest theres some better sounding shows from 79 on the archive but this setlist has a bunch of my favs on it so its a biased 5. In reality I would probably give it a 4 tho

downloading soundboards is not legal. The ability to do so will be shut down if it becomes to widespread. get it?

If you want to download the Soundboards its much easier with Firefox instead of Windows Explorer. All you have to do is stream it then right click on it, download it and save to to a folder

HOW do I download this show???? it is a good one I will make a donation to the site if someone can help.

This is a hell of a show. Sound quality is excellent and from start to finish boys play loud and proud. Stella Blue is one of the best I've heard. Lots of other highlights, as well. Enjoy.
