I was there as well and how someone could say the 2nd set, pre-drums "wasn't memorable" is beyond me. Why even bother going if you're that hard to please. This show was one of my all-time faves out of 52 ever. Yes, my bud and I were having a real fun trip, but my first High Time and and 20+-beat BIODTL were great 1st set highlights. First Childhood's End too, which had potential imho. Second set was where it's at though. The "Rain" thing was very good, but then when it stopped pouring and they went into HC Sunshine the place just lit up. I personally loved that moment. And then we got the really fun and interesting jamming after Corrina that would become Matilda. This was also the first one ever so it was special at the time. A rare 90s UJB out of space and then the boys affirmed they knew it was a good night by giving us Morning Dew to close it. What's not to like here, people? Yea, I know it's not 6-10-73 or May '77 but it's 5 stars for the era and for being a personal, all-time top 3 favorite show I attended. Pittsburgh '95 was another wild rain night that is worth checking out too. For the SOTM if nothing else.

I was at this show. I remember driving around to different camp sites. We had really strong bud. I found this guy who had the show actually this recording I believe and I had my portable dat player so I would go to his campsite after each show and copy his tape. He would play the entire show at the campground after each night. The sound was great at Deer Creek. Great run. Great memories..

I was at this show, which is actually my birthday and the only time the Dead every played on July 20. This Deer Creek run was an oasis in a year with not many highlights.

I mainly want to comment on this recording, VERY nice audience pull...the bass gets fuller with volume just like good Schoeps recordings do. Nice job on this one...5 stars for the recording, I'd give the show 4.
