Summary

This week we conclude our presentation of the band's performance at the Warfield in San Francisco back on September 26,1980.

This third set starts with Scarlet>Fire and while it is a worthwhile listen the real fire breaks out on the 'Estimated Prophet' that follows.. some great Garcia/Weir interplay and the entire band is cooking here. The 'Eyes of the World' that follows is a bit fast for my taste, but certainly has some sparkling runs. Drums/Space leads out into a fine 'Not Fade Away' - plenty of Brent adds lots of power here. They lead out quietly into 'Black Peter'... Sugar Mag ends the set and there is a fine 'Brokedown' encore, which Jerry restarts, probably due to his voice being a bit rough by now.. :)

A thoroughly enjoyable set, hope you enjoy it as well..

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to Dead Pod for December 8th, 2003.
0:03.4	This is a professor, so glad you could pick us up this week.
0:06.4	This week would conclude our presentation of the band's performance at the Warfield
0:10.0	Theater in San Francisco, California on September 26, 1980.
0:14.0	It was a Friday night.
0:16.0	This is the third set, of course, following the first acoustic set and the first electric set.
0:20.0	It starts out with Scarlet Fire.
0:22.0	Not the most powerful I suppose, but fairly nicely played.
0:28.0	But what follows really, they really ramp it up in the estimated profit which flows out of fire on the mountain.
0:33.7	That's where the real fire comes from here. Some great jamming in there.
0:38.1	Some nice interplay between Weir and Garcia, Brent, as always throughout this set set adds a lot of color to this.
0:45.0	Eyes of the world follows, it's a bit fast for my taste, but Jerry does have some interesting runs there.
0:51.0	Drums and space is interesting, a space in particular is nice. I really enjoy the dark
0:56.6	colors of this space. Goes into a powerful not fade away and then a slows down into Black Peter.
1:03.2	Jerry does a very soulful version of Black Peter here.
1:07.0	That goes into a Sugar Magnolia set closer
1:09.2	and they come back with a broke down Palace encore, although Jerry has to restart it because his voice is a bit
1:15.2	shot by this point, I think. Anyway, hope you enjoy this. I think it's quite an enjoyable
1:20.1	set to listen to and hope you find it so as well.
1:24.0	Thanks so much for picking us up this week,
1:26.0	and I really appreciate your support of the Dead Pot.
1:29.0	I can't do it without you.
