Grateful Dead, Winterland, June 17, 1975

A classic. Notes on the show at http://www.dead.net/show/june-17-1975 ... including this, by "Deaddad" who attended 26 shows between 1974 and 1978. He recalls:
This was one of those Keith and Donna, Kingfish and Jerry Garcia Band shows that actually turned into a Dead show during their '75 hiatus. Mickey Hart's first appearance in three years. A sold out show. We brought a buddy who didn't have a ticket. I think the gate was $10, max. We got him a ticket for $15, a half-pint of Cuervo Gold and two fat joints of killer weed. ...
Very nice guitar on "Peggy-O" ... second set opened with a 23-minute jam on "Blues for Allah."
