In 2013 ! ... the Spring Tour '78 Normal, Illinois ( Illinois State University ! ) Show has Finally !!! arrived - a Late-'70's Dead Fan " Dream Come True "... Oh-Yes !!!!!!! --- Werewolves !!!!! Late '70's Grateful Dead Fans !!! ... the time has Finally !! arrived - nearly 35-years later, and the Dream ! has indeed come-true, as the Spring Tour '78 Normal, IL - Illinois State University Show has been released !!! Wow ... I mean talk about some serious ' collective ' cassette tape playback on this-one by the Deadhead Faithful throughout the '80's, '90's, before & beyond ! I mean how many of those Maxell & TDK Metal & Chrome treasures actually lived-through this time ! I can say this for certain ... mine took some serious ' Love ' ! This is one of those Shows that pretty-much even required ' back-up ' copies! Time for Dead Tour, and time to pack up the analog cassette tape travel bag ! Well, don't forget Normal '78 !!! But how could you - you know ? Even if it's a short-run Tour, and you think you can pull it off with only 50, 30, or 15 tapes ! This 4/24/78 G.D. Live Magic ! was just always !! a faithful go-to. Please tell me you've heard this one ?!, and if not - all the answers are right here ... right smack-dab in the Music ! And trust me on this one ... Pristine Digital-Remastering - and I'm talkin' Pristine, with a capital " P " !!! Wow ... I don't know where to even start here with this one - so here comes my very-best shot on this Fun Topic... of Normal '78 !!! >>>> Promised Land just Blasting ! out of the gates - a clear hint from Band to Fans that this-night has the chance to be a Very-Special ! one. --- Garcia completely drilling! the " Grass ain't Greener, the Wine Ain't Sweeter " line in Ramble On with a big-time Holler !! --- even a little " Staying Alive " tuning-start / jingle-jam before Me & My Uncle ... but hey, it's 1978 - you've just gotta love it ! --- Mean !!! Bobby Ace powerhouse rhythm-riffs during the outro-jam in Passenger that acts as a catalyst ( almost challenging ! ) Garcia ... at which point he just blows-apart ! the lead-lines ... Whammo ! Garcia !!! --- Music Never Stops ??! ... I don't even know how to put it into words ? ... a Massive ! " Smash Jam on the outro - a straight-up Burner !!! --- Garcia's crispy, yet Bold ! tones are beyond-exemplary during the early stages of the Scarlet > ( * into ! * ) > Fire Jam !! --- Beautiful Weir Slide-guitar ! at the high-peak ! of ' Fire ', while at the same time Garcia jumps right in - and they cat & mouse this exchange ... while Garcia just simply unloads ! on the Mutron Envelope Filter !!!! --- just before ' Fire ' ends ... Garcia with a Beauty ! of a pretty-much improv addition ... " Let It Burn, Let It Burn " - tasty-stuff. --- Heavy-duty Bobby-Rap ! during the back-end of Good Lovin' - '78-Style ! Yeah Weir !! --- during Drums ! > Rhythm Devils ! > Space ! ... an Unusual ! & Quality !! " Chanting " throughout ... Nice ! --- Crystalline-Sweet !! Garcia treble-line riffs during the gentle, yet still completely Powerful ! ( & even more so, as a result ) during this N.F.A. entry-period!!! --- I mean I don't know what's prettier here, fellow fans ?? ... Garcia's " Tone " itself, or the sheer " Power " & precision-accuracy too - of his overall playing on this fine very-night ... Do you hear me on this ? - not a struggle-in-the-World ! type-stuff. Dang, pretty impressive. --- and Donna Jean !!! She's right on the mark ... just delivering the Goods ! Such sweet vocals everywhere ... And my goodness am I on a Donna-kick right now, after just seeing ( re-living ! ) her & Garcia teaming-up on that " Sing Me Back Home " the in 8/27/72 Veneta ! ... on " G.D. Movie Night " !! You bet I was there ... Go Donna ! - freshly in the Band in '72 -- so here's a shout-out from Ory-gun !!! Just fabulous... --- It might be safe to say that this 4/24/78 Show in Normal might very well define " Fun " !?!! In fact, it's hard to even decide Who's having more collective-fun here at this one ... the " Fans " ?? -or- the " Band " ??? It's hard to say, as I might even vote for the latter ? Point being, the " True " recipe for an Amazing ! Grateful Dead Show - is what you have here ... Beautiful-Energy !!! Does Phil say " Werewolves of 'Weird'ness " ?!? ... or " Werewolves of 'Weir'dness " ??!? Hah !! That one Fans, is for only You ! to decide ... because I still ! can't make up my mind - and this being way !! after my analogs from this Show almost played their little hearts out. Point being .. .. .. you need to find room in that precious CD Rack for this '78 Gem, for all reasons pretty much obvious. " I saw a Werewolf drinking a Pina Colada at Trader Vic's, and his hair was Perfect ! ... Werewolves of London !!! " 4/24/78 - I.S.U. - Normal, IL - Whoa !!! ..... Enjoy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
