Stella Blue
1st time played. Also Pigpen's last show.
3
The Other One
Last Pigpen, Super jammed-out and melty. How long between the killer organ chord after Phil's lead-in?? Maybe not until Brent.
3
Truckin'
This one has a great high-energy jam, and of course the Pig factor for the final time ever.
2
Ramble On Rose
Truckin'->Other One->Ramble On Rose is an awesome sequence!
1
Me and My Uncle
fine version back in the states from europe
1
Rockin' Pneumonia
Pig pEn's final show with the Grateful Dead, RIP Ron McKernan gone way before his time.
7
Playin' In The Band
Wonderful post Europe 72 Playin, gets nice and out there rather quickly.
5
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Ripping fast paced and high energy. From a killer high octane first set.
4
Black Throated Wind
Back from Europe with all the polish and power of a masterpiece: They've perfected the arc and emotional nuance. Miller cleanup is best (duh).
2
Tennessee Jed
Solid rockin' version with a cruisin' pulse and tight ensemble playing at high energy.
1
Loser
All around solid version, and just listen to Jerry’s licks right before “last fair deal”
