The Legendary !!! ' Mid-Tour ' Europe '72 Grateful Dead performance at the Olympia Theatre ! in Paris France !! ... on May 3rd, 1972 ( 5/3/72 ) ! ... Featuring " French Baguette ! - Sandwich Guitar !! " Cover Art !! Grateful Dead Fans who Love & even Live-for ! that Good Ol' Grateful Dead sound ... and at its Absolute-Finest ! Offered here proudly is the Monumental ! ' Mid-Tour ' ( 11th ! ) Show from the Grateful Dead Europe '72 Tour on May 3, 1972 ( 5/3/72 ) at the Rock & Roll ' Legendary ' Olympia Theatre in Paris, France !!! And as you might well expect - considering the time & era of Grateful Dead Music we are talking about here ... the band is Red-Hot right out of the gate early ! for this Monumental " Europe '72 " Tour ! ... and, as some may argue -- even More-So ! as this Legendary Tour of Europe was in Mid-Swing !! Seven ( 7 ) shows were played at the Academy of Music in New York City in Late-March ( 3/21-28/72 ), and if you have heard pieces, parts or all of that magnificent run - then you already know how " effective " that NYC run was as the ideal " Tour Warm-Up " for this Big-Time Europe '72 stretch that was right around the corner. Europe '72 kicked off at Wembley Empire Pool in London, England on 4/7/72, as part of a two-night stand. The 2nd tour-stop also took place in England ( Newcastle upon Tyne ) at the City Hall ! Then onto Copenhagen, Denmark ( for the 1st stop ! ) at the Tivoli Concert Hall. Then at Stakladen at Aarhus University in Aarhus, Denmark. Then " back to " the Tivoli Concert Hall in Copenhagen, Denmark ( again ! ). Three Denmark Shows ! And from here ... there were 17 More Shows ( 22 in Total ) stretching from Bremen ( Germany ), to Dusseldorf ( W. Germany ), to Frankfurt ( 100 Year Hall ! ), to Hamburg -- and then ... to the Olympia Theatre in Paris France ! - for 2-Shows ! on both 5/3/72 & 5/4/72 ... with the Entire ! 5/3/1972 Show captured right-here in All ! of it's Sonic Audio-Glory ! -- and, in a 4-CD format !!! From here, it was off to the Bickershaw Festival ( Wigan, England ), then to Amsterdam, to Rotterdam, to France, to Luxembourg, to Munich, and back to London again ! for a final 4-night stand at the Lyceum ! Europe '72 !!! And, though you may have indeed ( very-likely ! ) heard pieces & parts of this Grateful Dead 2-Show stand at the Olympia Theatre ... here indeed is the Entire-Show from the 1st Night - the ' Complete ' recording !! -- 5/3/1972 !!! Which, is important for many-many reasons, considering the ' caliber ' of live-music the Grateful Dead were delivering in mid-stretch of this Europe '72 Tour ! But, what is really cool about these ' Olympia ' Shows is - not only that they were at! the Olympia ( considering it's rich & Historical Tradition of Rock & Roll ... featuring the likes of Led Zeppelin - Black Sabbath - and so-so more ! ) -- But ! as far as these Dead Shows go ... the China > Rider from this 5/3/72 Show was selected for the Original ! 1972 " Europe '72 " Album release ... and -- the Sugar Magnolia ! was also selected & included on the Europe '72 Album from the next night on 5/4/1972. So, you can get my point here ... these Shows in France were so-incredibly Hot ! that there were " Key " selections selected & used on the Original " Europe '72 " Album !!! And, it should be noted that on the Europe '72 Album -- the 5/3/72 China > Rider live-track, is obviously ' just ' the China > Rider. But, here on this " Complete Recording " -- you can hear just exactly what led up to this amazing & classic ! version - and, what came after too ! Because ... after all -- just Look ! at this ' Disc 3 ' !?! >>> Truckin' > Other One ! > Drums > Other One !! > Me & Bobby McGee > Other One !!! Wow ... just a Europe '72 Classic !!! right here Fans, and indeed a true Must-Have for any serious G.D. Fan. A Triple-Other One Sandwich !!! So ... maybe that is what this French Baguette Guitar ! is featured so-colorfully on the Cover ?! Because, if you were in the house - inside the Olympia Theatre on 5/3/72 ... you got an Other One Triple-Sandwich !!! courtesy of the '72 Grateful Dead ... arguably, right ! at their young-Prime !!! There is so-so much goodness on this 4-CD Set, and - quite frankly too ... this is one of those situations from this Europe '72 Tour - where ... you really should have both ! of these 5/3/72 & 5/4/72 4-CD releases in your cherished music collection. Just to compare & contrast how the Band achieved G.D. Magic! for 2-Shows back-to-back ... you know, like they really did all throughout this entire Europe '72 Tour ! But, I must admit ... both of these are Shows that I have always ! been partial too. The Dead Delivering ! at the Paris Theatre, in Paris France ... as in those days in Rock & Roll - the competition was steep ! So-much Incredible music, and ... out Grateful Dead - well, they were right up there at the front ... and leading the Charge ! Simply a rip-roaring Grateful Dead Europe '72 Classic ! - in the fine form of 5/4/72 ... in Paris, France !!! Wow ... at least to my ears -- one of the Best ! from this Legendary Europe '72 Grateful Dead Tour ! -- Enjoy !!!!
