The Grateful Dead developed the “wall of sound” in 73 for live concerts....
Everything else pales in comparison...
Agreed. I saw that tour in Syracuse, and it was incredible.
Politics aside, the Dead were the best band in concert. Springsteen was a close second, but the Dead shows had much more depth.
The Dead and Company shows happening now are getting there. John Mayer and Otiel get it. Too bad Bobby has fizzled.
Zappa had top quality sound as well.
