Dead Heads Alex and Dave discuss the Grateful Dead's rockin', warty show from April 23, 1969 at The Ark in Boston. Topics include: a comparison of this version of the Dead to the one we most recently heard, from October 1968; our first Tom Constanten show; a revision of Dave's previous thoughts on Dark Star; and one of the all-time great show introductions--for the Dead or any band.
