I don't know how any impartial, open-minded music fan could listen to this and not believe @GratefulDead were the best American rock band of all time. That show is pure magic.

On this day in 1977, the Grateful Dead delivered a legendary performance at Cornell University's Barton Hall, a show so iconic it became one of the Dead’s most collected, traded, and downloaded concerts by any band ever, according to Blair Jackson.
