" all the way through this Monumental Tour ... but just as this Amazing ! 4-CD Set very-well proves, Europe '72 was getting Extra-Special ! at right-around this 1/3 mark ( Show 8 of 22 ! ) on this Tour ! Hence, the " Hundred Year Hall " Show release by GDP in a 2-CD format ... way back in 1995 ! One of the 1st Amazing ! Grateful Dead ' Live ' Digital release - from the post-touring ( 1995 ) era ... and this Show here --- is the Show-Before ! ... just 2-Days prior on 4/24/72 !!! Seven ( 7 ) Shows were played at the Academy of Music in New York City in Late-March ( 3/21-28/72 ), and if you have heard pieces, parts or all of that magnificent run - then you already know how " effective " that NYC run was as the ideal " Tour Warm-Up " for this Big-Time Europe '72 stretch that was right around the corner. Europe '72 kicked-off at Wembley Empire Pool ( London ) on 4/7/72, as part of a two-night stand. And from there it was 20 More Shows ( 22 in Total ) stretching from London, to Newcastle upon Tyne ( England ), to Copenhagen, to Aarhus ( Denmark ), back to Copenhagen, to Bremen ( Germany ) --- then here to Dusseldorf West Germany ! ... captured in Sonic Digitally-Mastered Excellence ! inside this 4-CD Set !!!! -- and then, it was on to the " Jahrhundert Halle " ( 100 Year Hall ! ) in Frankfurt, to Hamburg, to Paris, to the Bickershaw Festival ( Wigan, England ), to Amsterdam, to Rotterdam, to France, to Luxembourg, to Munich ... and then back again to London for a final 4-night stand at the Lyceum ! But . . . of my Dusseldorf !!!?!!!! As this here is Definitely ! a G.D. Show from the Europe '72 run that has been a bit overshadowed & overlooked - by the 100 Year Hall release ! Well, this Amazing ! " Europe '72 The Complete Recordings " releases way-back in 2011 Finally ! took care of this issue ... and now, just like 100 Year Hall -- now Dusseldorf ! has an equal-voice with Music Lovers & Grateful Dead Music Fans !!!

Playing In The Band ensues ( following Loser ! ) - with note worthy versions of both ! Good Lovin' & Casey Jones to follow ! And This ! my fellow G.D.
