Description
GRATEFUL DEAD IS 'WAKENING'. The Ohio Theater was the happy site of a post-Halloween party Sunday night, with the Grateful Dead and New Riders of the Purple Sage providing musical tricks and treats.
Many in the more-than-packed house were in costume and the concert induced dancing in the aisles, the orchestra pit, and even the box seats.
The show had been sold out well in advance, but people didn't seem to pay much attention to seats, anyhow.
It's near impossible to describe, define or categorize this group. They are the Grateful Dead, and have been for seven years now - an established, polished, together aggregation.
So many others have tried in vain to commercialize on what the Dead first laid down.
Garcia, Bill Kreutzmann, Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, and Keith Godchaux (filling in for Pigpen, who is recuperating from surgery) were simply outstanding.
Much of the material was new. "Jack's Straw" was particularly effective, and Godchaux provided excellent keyboard - quite noticeable throughout the concert, but especially during "Back to Tennessee."
The Grateful Dead have come a long way since their early days in San Francisco, but somehow have been able to evolve within their own style - which is dynamic. by Peggy Clark, from the Columbus Dispatch, 1 November 1971.
