Summary

This week we get to listen to the second set from a nice performance from the fall of 1972 - 10/28/72 Cleveland Ohio.. The Dark Star is clearly the crown jewel of this performance and I encourage you to read the description of that piece given by Robert Goetz in the Grateful Dead Tapers Compendium. It is far from the only thing worthwhile in the set to be sure. While some of the sound is not pristine (my apologies for that), still I really enjoyed the rest of the set, especially the Attics.. and hope you do as well.

The Dark Star should be *studied* :)

Grateful Dead Cleveland Public Hall 10/28/72 - Saturday Set Two: He's Gone El Paso Don't Ease Me In Greatest Story Ever Told Brown Eyed Women Beat It On Down The Line Attics Of My Life Big River Dark Star > Sugar Magnolia Casey Jones E: Johnny B. Goode

0:00.0	Hello, and welcome to Dead Pod for the week of November 2, 2012.
0:03.5	This is a professor.
0:04.5	I'm so glad to get tune in this week.
0:06.3	This week we get the pleasure of listening to the second set from this quite interesting show
0:11.8	that took place back on October 28th, 1972 at the Cleveland Public
0:16.4	Hall in Cleveland, Ohio.
0:18.6	It starts out, we're going to hear the whole second set tonight starting out with he's gone
0:23.0	El Paso get the set list I mean it's just crazy
0:26.1	don't ease me in greatest story ever told brown-eyed women
0:30.0	beat it on down the line
0:31.2	addicts of my life one of the rare and wonderfully done version,
0:35.8	Big River, and then the Monster Dark Star, which this tape is known for.
0:39.7	It's just really a killer. You'll really enjoy listening to this one. It's different than a lot of 72 stars, but it's certainly a great 1972 star.
0:49.0	I recommend that if you have access to it that you read Robert Gets's commentary on this
0:55.8	Dark Star in the Deadhead Taping Compendium.
0:58.2	I'm going to read you just a little piece of it because I can't put it better than what he does here. He says here that the band mown, this is towards the end of the jam, his description of the end of this dark star. The man, the band moans a bit with Kreut's been setting a chaotic pace. Ultimately Garcia falls into an exceptional
1:14.2	and perhaps the longest tiger ever. Afterward the tape drifts out and leaves the
1:18.6	listener shivering. As with several of the omnipotent 72 dark Stars, the dead bring you through a palace of
1:24.1	gardens only to turn the tables and drive you to unfathomable and mind blistering heights.
1:29.9	What a great description of this Dark Star.
1:31.8	I know you're going to enjoy it. It goes into
1:33.3	Sugar Magnolia and then Casey Jones band comes out with a Johnny Be Good
