Port Chester 1970
The Dead played some of their greatest shows at this venue and this show ,11/8/70 ,may be the greatest. The Dark Star>Main Ten>Dancin' jam in this show may be among the Bands finest hours. Only available as an audience recording, (and a good one) this show is a must hear must have for all lovers of the Dead.! It includes many rarities and some of the most incredible jams the Dead ever summoned! A classic!

Howdy GD folks,
This run of the cap theatre, portchester is just as good if not better than the fillmore east feb 1970 run...I don't know if this show is in the vault. It's only available from Marty's open reels. I can't remember if this show has the alligator on it as well...and I might add that archivists are not excactly clear on the early and late show billings...this show is seriously un-believable...I hope they've got this one in or part of this run in the vault...regardless of the sound quality the performance is stellar and the vibe in the crowd is really symbiotic.
I wish that for just one time, You could stand inside my shoes, and for just that one moment, I could be you - Bob Dylan, Positively 4th St.

This show is wonderful.
for years i was of the opinion that 70 and 71 weren't as good as 69 and 72-74, but this show and others have changed that opinion.
The acoustic set is amazing

Forty years of being a DEAD HEAD
I wish I had some of those old recordings. It was a great time. I really liked Port Chester almost as much as the Fillmore.
New Orleans > Searchin'
ROCKS!!!
