Um, this is simply not true. To Lay Me Down was performed by the Dead in 1970, while Loser, Bird Song, Deal, and Sugaree were all performed by the band in 1971, long before Garcia was recorded.

Yikes. From what I know of this writer's work, it's usually airtight. Ugh. Thanks for calling out (and yeah, while I'm not the head that lots of folks are I think I know those Capitol Theatre shows from 1971, w/ Bird Song etc.!)
The Wheel might fall under what the author was describing. And maybe the instrumentals. It's a great article regardless. And an even better album. I revisited it today after reading the article. It's absolute gold.
