The Other One
Unreal, easily top 5, one of the most tripped out jamin' versions known. Exquisite!
80
Greatest Story Ever Told
Greatest STEPHEN ever Told. Jerry rips into a "St.Stephen" jam in the bridge jam before the reprise. 2d only to 8/27
19
Brokedown Palace
While not without imperfection, this version gets at that misty quality central to the ethos of the tune.
25
He's Gone
Wow. Everyone is on during this great show, bob's guitar really does it for me. Won't you give it a listen!?
10
Me and Bobby McGee
Towards the end of a other one jam, this version is mellow, sweet and unpredictable.. a must listen for fans of this song!
5
Promised Land
Rocking, although Weir seems a little out of breath. Check out Jerry's scream after "...and the poor boy's on the line."

China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Subtly experimental transition jam seems to hint at “Feelin’ Groovy” without stating the theme outright.

Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
Jerry Hitting a mean solo in this one, just makes you want to dance!
2
Mexicali Blues
Very humorous lines from Garcia during the last verse of this version, made me smile
