Summary
This week marks the 25th anniversary of the show I selected to play this week, and it clearly is one of the better later-day Dead shows. This comes to us from September 18th, 1987 at Madison Square Garden New York. It starts out with Weir refering to their appearance on Letterman the night before and then kicks into a great Hell In a Bucket... The Sugaree that follows is no slouch.. This first set also has a wonderful version of Candyman and When I Paint My Masterpiece. Its a short but solid set one that ends with a very nice Birdsong.. We'll listen to set 2 next week, which has some real meat to its bones, but I thought I'd close out this week's Deadpod with a cut from the newly released 'Spring 1990: So Glad You Made It' set with the Blow Away from the Cap Center in Landover MD, March 16th, 1990. If you're a fan of Brent's you'll enjoy hearing this one..

| 0:06.4 | This week marked the 25th anniversary of one of the greatest shows in a latter day grateful dead history and |
| 0:16.7 | I'm kind of amazed I've never played this before according to my records anyway on the dead pod |
| 0:20.1 | So I thought I'd bring it to you starting this week. Well this comes to us from |
| 0:24.4 | Madison Square Garden home of many a great Grateful Dead shows. This one took place on September the 18th, 1987. |
| 0:27.8 | It's a good one, folks. |

| 0:38.1 | Bobby on this first set that refers to that to that appearance. They rock into a great hell in the bucket into Sugarry. The |
| 0:45.2 | Sugarry is quite good. Walking Blues, a candy man that's really perfectly |
| 0:49.8 | well done. When I paint my masterpiece, follows that, and then the boy is close, a short but well played |
| 0:56.2 | set one with Bird Song. Now, well here, set two next week, but I decided that since this was such |
| 1:02.1 | a short set, it wouldn't hurt to treat you to if you don't have this collection already |
| 1:07.9 | It's something that I can recommend if you're a fan of Latter-day Dead |

| 1:24.7 | box set compilation that was recently released and what I'm gonna play is a |
