This week a show that caused a huge stir in the Deadhead community when it occurred, and a request from some of my kind listeners up in Vermont.. This show marked the return of St. Stephen for the first time since early 1979. The show has plenty of other great music, and I'm brining you the second set for your enjoyment..

This week we'll hear the rest of the second set from 11/9/79, Buffalo NY. We'll begin with a jazzy Estimated Prophet, which goes into a heartfelt He's Gone.

Here's a really high-energy east coast show from the end of 1979.. This week we'll listen to the entire first set plus the fabulous disco-version of the second set opener, Dancin' In The Streets and a completely out there Franklin's Tower.

I had a different show in mind until I discovered that this show had become available - this is one of the greatest shows of one of the greatest years in the history of the Grateful Dead..
