Grateful Dead Providence 9-7-1987 Night 1 of 3 – Stranger → Franklin’s | UJB → Playin’ Fireplace Log

Описание: The Grateful Dead live at the Providence Civic Center in Providence, Rhode Island on September 7, 1987 — Night One of a three-night run.

Opening night comes out swinging with Feel Like A Stranger flowing into Franklin’s Tower. The first set stays punchy and confident, while the second set dives deeper with Uncle John’s Band flowing into a Playin’ In The Band jam before moving through Drums, Space, and a powerful late-set stretch of Truckin’, Spoonful, Black Peter, and a rock-and-roll closing sequence of Around & Around, Good Lovin’, and La Bamba.

An emotional Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door encore sends Night One home in style.

This performance captures the band in strong late-’80s form — tight, energized, and clearly settling in for the long weekend.
