Happy Valentine's Day!  I couldn't think of a better love letter to send to all of you than a fine portion of classic Grateful Dead from 1974.. from Winterland no less..  this beauty comes from the February '74 run - in this case February 23rd. This first set starts with a rocking 'Around and Around' - a different and welcome way to open a show. They follow with three ballads - 'Dire Wolf', 'Me & Bobby McGee' and 'Sugaree'.. Mexicalli follows then one of the highlights of this first set is a strong 'Here Comes Sunshine'. They 'Beat it Down the Line', then a 1st set 'Ship of Fools'. 'Jack Straw' and 'Deal' follows, then a great rocking trifecta of 'Promised Land', 'Bertha', and 'Greatest Story Ever Told' to end this first set.  We will get to hear the second set next week..    Grateful Dead Winterland Arena San Francisco, CA 2/23/74 - Saturday     One     Around And Around [4:46] ; Dire Wolf [4:15] ; Me And Bobby McGee [5:34] ; Sugaree [7:01] ; Mexicali Blues [3:17] ; Here Comes Sunshine [9:#17] ; Beat It On Down The Line [3:25] ; Ship Of Fools [5:16] ; Jack Straw [4:33] ; Deal [4:18] ; The Promised Land [3:00] > Bertha [5:51] > Greatest Story Ever Told [5:06]    You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:  http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod021320.mp3   So appreciate you listening and  your kind support!    Be kind ;)
