Cream Puff War
This version is head and shoulders above the other versions I've heard. The ending jam is outrageous.

Lindy
Vintage Grateful Dead Blues, Killer version of the rarely played little gem Jerry is sparkling
3
I Know You Rider
Get's the introduction of "This is a famous old folk song" Early version of a tune they would make classic. Great historical performance.

Beat it on Down The Line
Maniacal with unreal energy levels. Jerry and Pigpen take the jam to spiraling dizzying levels, real cool and rapid paced masterful performance.

Hurts Me Too
Slow and powerful introduction the song builds and builds in intensity as the song takes off.
