Pretty Peggy O
The most agressive Garcia vocals, matched by his playing, top 10 easy, don't know why it wasn't on the list
22
Cold Rain and Snow
Surprised this one hasn’t been nominated, a great version with impassioned Garcia vocals and lead runs, give it a listen. Love the vocal coda as well.

Beat it on Down The Line
This continues the cool groove of the Col Rain. Great version. This show needs to be listened to.

Drums -> Space
Sweet first red rocks show. They tap into some great shit out there real primal stuff get an aud version

Nobody's Fault But Mine
More than half of this NFA is actually NFBM jam and a killer one at that. At times tough to differentiate the 2 tunes.

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
Don’t always love the ’78s for this tune, but this howling version certainly warrants attention.

Johnny B. Goode
Fun cap off to a real good Red Rocks show. Phil sounded so good in the mix this entire show.
